It is currently over the Atlantic and is expected to reach Portugal and Spain over the weekend, as well as some regions of western France. Belgian media also recommends to avoid washing cars.

It is not the first such dust cloud observed by CAMS this year. A few weeks ago, the sand had turned the skies red and left a layer of dust on everything.
