dust

According to the NOAA, forecasters are predicting another blast of Saharan dust moving into the Texas and Louisiana coastline as early as Tuesday

NASA forecasters are saying the brunt of the latest Saharan dust storm will hit Louisiana this Friday, but should begin to show up today.

The sandy atmospheric phenomenon is set to make an encore performance this weekend - and it could be good news.

How wild is it that we have dust from the Sahara Desert settling over our area this week? It’s so bad that experts are saying that people with asthma and respiratory issues should stay inside because that’s all we need on top of the heat and pollen that Louisiana likes to dish up on a daily basis.

So, if you've noticed that haze over Shreveport and Bossier for the last couple of days, you were probably shocked to find out that it's actually dust from the Sahara Desert that blew all the way across the Atlantic Ocean and settled into our area.
