Spain issued extremely poor air quality ratings for a large swathe of Spain Tuesday after a mass of hot air from the Sahara dumped loads of dust after crossing the Mediterranean. The minerals in the dust replenish nutrients in rainforest soils which are continually depleted by drenching tropical rains. Saharan dust storms massive clouds of wind-blown sand and silt from the surface of the Sahara Desert also journey across the.
The weather phenomenon which is common this time of year has reached parts of Texas creating hazy skies and perhaps some respiratory challenges.
