Default [WR] Saharan Dust

I had a similar experience driving through a light shower in the Canterbury
area. Having cleaned my car some two hours previously before driving to this
area I turned up at the village of Wickhambreux east of Canterbury to talk
at the village hall.There were spatter marks all over the car. It was fairly
hygroscopic with the deposits staying fairly moist even though the weather
afterwards was dry.
