Sand over Greece
 
"Michael Mcneil" wrote in message...
I recall reading that the general direction of travel was up from the
east of the med along the north of it off the coast at France and/or
Spain then up over the British Isles and on to Scandinavia where the
Swedes think we did it.


As long as the Norwegians don't think the Swedes remained neutral and let
the dust invade them overland via Sweden!

I went up to the hills of downtown Athens when it got dark on Sunday in
case I could take some pictures in reddish light but alas, the
atmosphere was clearing away. Monday was remarkably clear and visibility
today was virtually brilliant too, limited only by the capabilitiy of
human eyes; the Argosaronic isles and even the snowy mountains of the
Peloponnese were visible from SE Athens (to my southwest).

The sun sets behind Mt Parnes after an April shower on Monday:

Ski resorts on continental Greece got some fresh snow through Monday,
while snow levels reached about 900m again in the northwest of the
country. Tuesday was more settled around Greece, while more
thunderstorms are expected mainly as of Thursday.
