A thick plume of Saharan dust that has affected Barbados for several days has begun to clear, prompting the Barbados Meteorological Services to lift a dust haze advisory, although brisk winds continue to pose risks at sea.
In an update issued on Monday, meteorologist David Harding said dust concentrations across Barbados and its marine area had fallen enough to improve visibility and no longer warrant the advisory.
“There has been a reduction in Sahara dust concentrations across Barbados and its marine area today, resulting in an improvement in visibility,” Harding said. “As it no longer meets the criteria for an advisory, the Barbados Meteorological Services has discontinued the dust haze advisory effective immediately.”
