🌫️ Sahara Dust Clouds Are Heading to Florida and Beyond Massive plumes of Saharan dust are traveling across the Atlantic and heading straight for Florida, the Gulf Coast, and possibly parts of the Southeast and Midwest. While these clouds can create stunning sunsets, they also carry risks: respiratory irritation, reduced air quality, and heat intensification. 🌍 This is a natural yearly event—but scientists warn 2025 could see one of the densest waves in years. People with asthma or other lung issues should be prepared. ☀️ On the upside, the dust can suppress hurricane activity—but at the cost of hazy skies and health impacts. Stay alert. Stock up on air filters and N95s. What starts in the Sahara doesn’t stay there. #SaharanDust #AirQuality #FloridaWeather #BETTRNews #ClimateUpdate #PublicHealth #WeatherWatch https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/sahara-dust-clouds-are-heading-to-florida-and-beyond/
