VOLCANIC DUST

[Athy]

After it had rained last week I went out to pour the rainwater off the back cover of my Springer. This water normally leaves a greyish-brown muddy residue on the cover; but this time it was reddish-brown in colour. the local soil is not reddish. Would this change of colour be caused by the Icelandic volcano dust in the air?

Do you think we'll see "canal closed due to volcanic ash" in the news then :lol:

Its the colour of all the tears cried by stuck passengers awaiting their plane home

Volcano coloured?

 

I haven't washed my car since I bought it, so I wouldn't notice a bit more dust.
