Default Dust falls

Just been out to move the car and it is splattered with brown dust.
Looks like this plume has brought some dust with it from somewhere to
the South. Anybody else seen the same?

Yes, the shower near 19z yesterday here in Wokingham has left a considerable
dust deposit on the car. Yellow/brown in colour. I wonder if some of it
might be pollen.

A few spots (literally) of rain yesterday (Saturday) at
about 5 pm left my car with with spots of dust. They were greyish
rather than brown.

Yes, and significant dust deposition (wet) is shown in the University
of Athens Dust forecasts for today and tomorrow.

Just a few spots of rain here this morning, barely enough to dampen
the ground, but left a greyish dust deposit.

A slight dustfall in spots of rain yesterday afternoon here and in
south Hampshire (Romsey), more significant falls in very intermittent
rain much of the afternoon here today. My conservatory roof was jet-
cleaned by last week's heavy showers, now it is covered in pale brown
dust as the rain has evaporated away. Car windows also heavily
streaked.
