Saharan dust is making a comeback. The first plume of the season is projected to near Florida and the Gulf this weekend and early next week. Saharan dust is not new. Each year, wind from storms in Africa kicks dust into the air. Saharan Dust originates from the Sahara Desert, which covers most of northern Africa. It is the largest hot desert in the world, encompassing nearly 5.7 million square miles—almost the size of the United States.

What is storm surge? Storm surge is an abnormal rise of water generated by a storm, over and above the predicted astronomical tide. It’s the change in the water level that is due to the presence of the storm. Since storm surge is a difference between water levels, it does not have a reference level. What causes storm surge? Storm surge is primarily caused by the strong winds of a tropical system. The wind circulation blows on the surface and produces a vertical circulation in the ocean.
