It seems that with unusually warm temperature came unusually bad air. Any ideas why?

Happy Easter everyone, btw!

Had to look it up, apparently a massive dust storm blew up from the Sahara.

It seems to be greyish–white dust, not red. I was puzzled at first, as well, but there seems to be more in the Sahara than red sand.
