Dense plume of Saharan dust arriving to Florida sky on Thursday
The first round of Saharan dust is arriving to South Florida on Thursday, June 5 creating colorful sunsets but also helping to suppress tropical activity in the Atlantic Ocean. FOX Weather Meteorologist Marissa Torres said the dust acts as "checks and balances" for the hurricane season. With rounds of rain forecast, this dust could create "dirty rain" bringing some of the dust down to the ground.
