A local meteorologist, that I have a lot of faith in, stands by his observation of a low level particulate event. He believes while it is perfectly possible for dirt/dust to get transported from Saudi Arabia and the Middle East all around the globe by the jet stream, there is no way that is what caused our muddy rain Friday. The dirt/dust originated in Oregon and Northern California. \|\| Hi, Faye
