Ski Resorts Blanketed with Orange Snow
滑雪勝地被橙雪覆蓋
A massive dust storm originating in North Africa this week caused sand from the Sahara Desert to mix with rain and snow. When the snow fell over parts of Eastern Europe it had an orange tint. The orange snow fell on ski resorts in Sochi, Russia as well as in Ukraine, Bulgaria, Romania and Moldova. In the mountains, many skiers and snowboarders took photos of their runs, saying it felt like they were skiing on Mars. The sandstorm next made its way to Greece. According to the Athens Observatory, the sandstorm was one of the greatest transfers of desert sand to Greece ever seen.
本周發(fā)源于北非的大規(guī)模沙塵暴使撒哈拉沙漠的沙和雨雪混在一起。當(dāng)東歐地區(qū)的積雪降臨時(shí),它被染上了橙色。橙色的雪落在俄羅斯索契的滑雪勝地,以及烏克蘭、保加利亞、羅馬尼亞和摩爾多瓦。山上的許多滑雪者和滑雪運(yùn)動(dòng)員拍攝了自己跑步的照片,表示像在火星上滑雪。然后沙塵暴轉(zhuǎn)移到了希臘。根據(jù)雅典天文臺(tái)的統(tǒng)計(jì),此次沙塵暴是有史以來轉(zhuǎn)移到希臘最大規(guī)模的沙塵暴之一。
