A sandstorm from the Sahara is on its way to the UK, according to forecasters.
Colourful sunsets and sunrises caused by Saharan dust brought across the UK by high-level winds have already been spotted in the east of England.
But as well as stunning skies, Brits may need to give their car a once-over due to dust deposits.
Speaking on GMB, meteorologist Laura Tobin said: "There was a big sandstorm in Africa across the Sahara.
"All of this sand has slowly tracked its way westwards and then it is set to head towards our shores.
"So we, through the next few days, are set to see sand from the Sahara deposited on our cars, you'll see a little trace if you run your finger across.
"Another thing it will do, which perhaps will make up for the fact we have this dust on our car, is create some beautiful sunrises and sunsets.
"Weather-wise for the next couple of days, it is set to be mild but there is still some rain."
Tonight it will be misty but with largely clear skies, however, winds will start to pick up through the night.
