Cloud Travels 10,000 Miles To Obscure Skies

DENVER -- There's a haze over Denver this week -- but it isn't that notorious "brown cloud."

Experts say it's a white cloud that traveled 10,000 miles from central Asia.

in early spring, the grass in central Asia isn't long enough to hold down dust, so the wind picks it up and carries it to other parts of the world.

Three years ago, a similar but much larger cloud settled on the Front Range and triggered health alerts after pollution levels sharply increased.

2. LOL,the Gazette said it was from the sand put down for the last snow storm

The same day the Post said it was from, well, I thought they said China. But I could be mistaken.

3. Well, That Explains Why We've Been Sufferring Lately in Pueblo County

It's been hazy and hard to breathe all week. And this may be the reason behind the sinus infection I've been battling all week.
