Saharan Dust Could Cause Issues For Some in Louisiana
Bad news for those of you who suffer from allergies.
A massive cloud Saharan Dust is creeping closer to the Gulf of Mexico and will sweep across the area in the days and weeks ahead.
With that will come some beautiful sunrises and gorgeous sunsets, but the dust could also produce a few problems for some.
If you already suffer from allergies, you know that more dust in the air or in the atmosphere can be problematic for you. So, you should start to prepare for a few "rough days" ahead.
The good news about this dust moving across the Gulf of Mexico is that it will settle the atmosphere, thus the dust will prevent any tropical storms from "flaring-up."
So, if you happen to notice a haze across the area in the days ahead, it's the dust moving in from the African coact.
