A huge cloud from Sahara is floating west over the Atlantic Ocean, moving directly towards Florida.
The dense part of the African dust plum has already reached the Caribbean region and can blow up in the state of sunshine by midwick, according to National Meteorological Service Office in MiamiThe Meteorologists say when dust enters, it will probably lead to dry local weather, decreased air quality and exceptionally vivid sunrise and sunset, meteorologists say.
San Juan, Puerto Rico’s NWS Office on Monday at 9pm D The top density of the Sahara dust was rotating in the area and was expected to arrive in the afternoon. Have agencies Put Multiple air quality alerts, because respiratory breathing can irritate breathing systems and worsens allergies, asthma and other respiratory conditions.
These particles can also trap the heat near the ground and such as NWS Sun Juan has issued a Heat consultation It will be effective through Tuesday. The agency said the southeast air combined with the effects of dust clouds is expected to keep temperature higher than normal in many coastal and urban areas.
At the end of last week, Florida, NWS Miami meteorologist Anna Torres-Vagkez had a thin screen of dust already on top of Stated Scientific American. By midwick, a dense, dense plum will be built in the state, although weathermen Expectation It will be patchier than current conditions in the Caribbean region. According to the Weather Channel, some patch of the rest of the dust on the Gulf coast can reach the end of this week.
Formally known as Saharan Air Layer or Sal, this massive, dusty wind mass starts from the end of spring to autumn across North Africa every year, according to NOAA’s Atlantic Oceanographic and Weather LaboratoryThe It is the tropical waves scattered in the lower-to-middle atmosphere-which tracks in the southern part of the Sahara Desert and abundant dust in the atmosphere, Jason Dinion, NOAA meteorologist, Explanation In a 2020 interview.
Every three to five days later, the year is known as “outbreak” on the tropical northern Atlantic Ocean. This activity is usually at the top of the middle of June to the middle of August, and during the peak period the outbreaks are further west. Once or twice in the summer, a year travels more than 5000 miles off the bull coast of the states from Florida to Texas. According to the NOA it is exactly what is happening now, which tracks the Salti Use This is the GOS-16 satellite.
The arrival of this year is in line with the Atlantic Hurricane season, which officially started on Sunday, June 5th. The warmth, dryness and strong air related to this mass of dust air are shown to suppress the structure and severity of tropical cyclone, according to the dunion. Thus, the year usually prevents the hurricane shape.
However, meteorologists are already monitoring a territory along the southeast coast for possible sub -tropical or tropical development. Aquaher Forecast This, within the next 10 days, the dry air will be alternative to the Caribbean and the coast of Florida with moist air.
As a result, a region of moisture from South Florida to Bahamas and Cuba can develop a region of moisture early this week, potentially brings a few inches of rain and thunderstorms to the region. While the risk of tropical development is low, heavy rainfall can cause slight coastal floods, strap currents and rough surf from mid -to -end week, Acwaver ReportThe
From the bright side, the inhabitants of Florida – and in the state of other Gulf coasts, potential people can expect some especially the sunrise and sunset this week, thanks to the year. According to the NOA, the high concentration of the airborne dust enhances the color of bright red and orange, which passes through the atmosphere, which occurs from low-angle sunlight.
The year may be prolonged over the southeast for several days, though the dust will begin to disappear. Meteorologists will closely monitor how air quality, visibility and hurricane season affects the first days of the season.
