- Description:Montpellier, France, experienced an unusual phenomenon as the sky turned brown, resembling a scene from a desert storm. Shared by @davidhutinphoto on March 30, 2024, the video captured the surreal sight, with the caption attributing it to Sahara Desert sand particles suspended in the atmosphere. The Sahara Desert annually releases between 60 to 200 million tons of mineral dust, with the smallest particles capable of traveling thousands of kilometers. While larger particles settle closer to their source, the finer ones can be carried vast distances, affecting even distant regions like Montpellier.
