Red Sky
California, on Dec 16, 2003

Is this red dust too? It looks dusty dirty, not just red lit up clouds.

Note this red dust arrived in Sanf Francisco on the same day that red dust landed from Texas to Michigan, and was blamed on winds carrying dust from New Mexico and west Texas. Then how did San Francisco get this dust? Winds blowing west as well as east?

Illinois: it looked more like the oxidation that settles on iron after you get it wet. Arkansas: I have lived here since 1974. And have never awoke to such deep red dust (from rain) everywhere. It is hard to wash off. Texas: I am unsure what it is for certain but it is not soil, it has an unusual appearance under magnification.
