Grenada: Saharan dust haze expected to worsen

A large dense plume of Saharan dust is expected to affect Grenada along with other Caribbean islands this week. 

Grenadians have been warned that satellite imagery indicates conditions are expected to worsen in the coming days as it gets closer to the island chain.
