Saharan sunset: Desert dust paints sunsets, sunny skies in store for holiday
Sunshots by Bill Powell — The sun sets over Lake Hartwell and paints the sky hues of orange on Saturday, June 26, as a massive plume of dust from the Saharan Desert passes over the Southeastern U.S.
Don’t be fooled by last weekend’s orange-hued sunsets, Hartwell was not suddenly transplanted to the Saharan desert, but the enhanced colors were caused by Saharan dust.
