this time of the year

Is it cold yet? Haven't heard. Did it snow yet? Don't think so. The Afghan winter is vastly overrated, both in severity and in duration.

Kabul is on the same latitude as Little Rock. I am sure it gets ugly at elevation and in the spring, with the atrocious road network they have.

The rest of the time, the climate is a lot better than it is in the upper Midwest.

Afghan winter is like Denver or Amarillo, Tex. You can go there in Dec or Jan and find it 60 deg F--

or you can freeze your you know what. All depends on what year, what day, what minute...
