A sandstorm will affect large parts of Algeria in the coming days

In the details, it is expected that sandstorms and dust waves will start from Monday, with atmospheric pressure differences increasing on Tuesday, to intensify wind speeds and be accompanied by strong gusts sometimes exceeding 100 km / h in some areas, and these winds are considered enough to form a wide sandstorm The range extends to large parts of Algeria, especially the western and central regions.

Given the weak rainy season on Algeria during the past season, this increases the strength of the expected sand storm as a result of drying and disintegration of the soil, and it is not excluded that the sandstorm will affect parts of southern and western European continent, especially Spain, France and Portugal.

• The danger of strong winds that may reach the barrier of 100 km / h.
• The risk of a decrease in the range of horizontal visibility due to dust and dust stirred up.
• Risk of complications in patients with respiratory system and eyes due to dust.
