Covered in red dust

[obi_waynne]

Anyone else find their car was covered in red dust over this weekend?

It looks so dirty now, I hosed it down but the drizzle we had seemed to set the red dust into the paint work!

Someone said it's dust from the Sahara blowing over but I suspect it is the amount of local building projects on the go with new homes going up all around us!

Nothing down here buddy! A year or 2 ago and huge dust cloud came over us and a lot of cars were covered in dirt.

It's just me then, the dust is targetting my car!

Does one snort it, sniff it, burn it, smoke it, swallow it or eat it? Can I sell it in little packets?

The dust I'm seeing is yellow, and it's from the trees around Washington DC doing their best to reproduce and reforest the planet. I washed my car yesterday and within minutes the pollen was laying down a fine coating on every horizontal surface! There must be some sort of electrostatic attraction between my polished paint and the pollen!
