Crete looked almost other-worldly on Wednesday after a huge wave of Sahara dust swept across the island, turning the skies a deep orange red. The town of Heraklion was blanketed in thick dust blowing in from North Africa, with visibility dropping so much that some flights had to be diverted. The dust storm arrived alongside heavy rain and strong winds moving across Greece. #Greece #Saharadust #Crete #weather #climate
