“Typically, airborne dust from the Sahara helps to cool this region by blocking and reflecting some of the sun’s energy; but weaker than average winds have reduced the extent of dust in the region’s atmosphere potentially leading to higher temperatures,” said professor Albert Klein Tank of the Met Office’s Hadley Centre in the Met Office blog.”
