Sahara Dust at Sunrise
Here's what the Saharan dust filled skies we have this time of year do to our sunrises.
Looks more like a full moon than the sun.... All that Saharan dust makes our skies dry
which is a great deterrent to hurricanes. So, even though the dust is not pretty and is a
real mess around the house, I personally love it because the more of it the less chance
of stronger storms. -cheryl

Hopefully the storm will by pass St. John!
