Another Day, Another Dust Storm  

When I headed out this morning and saw the air quality here I immediately wondered if yet another dust cloud had rolled over Sydney - according to the SMH the answer is "yes" (maybe those conservative climate skeptics don't ever go outside to notice the new weather patterns - too busy try to knife their moderate leader in the back) - Dust haze blankets Sydney and NSW.

A dust haze across Sydney should completely clear on Sunday afternoon but the Hunter Valley is expected to be blanketed until evening.

The Bureau of Meteorology insisted this morning it was not a dust storm such as the one seen in Sydney on September 23, just "raised dust". "It's shrinking... conditions are improving,'' Bureau of Meteorology senior forecaster Peter Zmijewski said.
