VOICED : Polvo del Sahara afecta las playas mexicanas

The Sahara Desert dust is affecting the Yucatán Peninsula's sky, creating a dense cloud over Cancún. This phenomenon, while increasing temperatures, reduces tropical cyclone formation and rainfall. Health authorities in Quintana Roo recommend using masks to avoid inhaling dust particles that may contain bacteria and fungi. The region's tourism sector is recovering from COVID-19 impacts and battling sargassum algae, which may thrive due to nutrients from the dust. More information is available online.
