| Saharan Dust Forecast For Thursday July 7, 2026 |
The summertime scourge of South Florida has returned for a return visit. Saharan dust is filling our skies. The skies are no longer blue--they are hazy and the afternoon showers will no longer plague us. When we look to the sky we see haze. We know the skies are clear, but they are not vibrant blue.
On the Sandbar

July 2, 2026
Fortunately, forecasters are predicting this plume will not afflict us much past the weekend.
On the unfortunate side the plume, which seems a bit counterintuitive to me, also causes out temperatures to rise. I believe it is because the plume prevents heat from escaping. We are looking at our highest temperatures of the year for the next few days in the mid-90s and the feels like will be in about 105 degrees.
It will be an excellent time to be out on the water, as there people were, and enjoy one of the area sandbars. I have a boat reserved for next week and am looking forward to getting back afloat.
In other news, the Orioles have descended the division ladder to the bottom. They continue to limp into the All Star Break and likely will not recover from their dismal season. It is sad when a season that began with so much promise blows apart and crushes the fans hope.
As the summer heat continues--stay cool!
