Massive dust cloud from Sahara Desert is drifting 5,000 miles over the Atlantic towards the US - with experts warning it could lower air quality in five states including Florida

"Skies over Florida - along with southern swathes of Texas, Louisiana, Alabama and Mississippi - will look 'hazy' and could turn brown from the sandy plum"

"It will bring scorching temperatures of 105 degrees and an uptick in allergies - but also bright orange sunsets and a suppression of tropical thunderstorms "

"The Saharan Air Layer is so dense it was spotted on space satellites this week"

It's here. The sunrise was red, & the sky is hazy. Its a tad darker than it should be...kinda like a partial eclipse.

[Corrie22]

It's definitely here....looks like smoke when the glades are burning

we get a short break...this is the little one....the big boy is going to hit us at the end of the week...and it's a lot bigger and denser

Got rain out there and stayed cloudy and never got over 4ft seas. I gots my porgies and 4 red snaps chap. Still blue sky here.

Does the Sarahan dust land on the water & collect there? In Atlanta, the pollen would do that each Spring.

Saharan dust is transporting iron and phosphorus....two things that are very limiting in the open ocean

...remember when they were going to seed the ocean with iron...to grow algae...to stop global warming (or some such nonsense)

the iron and phos also feed red tide...a dinoflagellate...and cause red tide blooms
