Massive Sahara dust cloud heads toward the United States

National Weather Service expert Jim Lushine says the event should be modest but might influence sunrises and sunsets. Meteorologist Scott Kelly adds the dust could reach south Texas or Mexico if it continues westward, with little impact north of Florida unless a weather system pulls it southward.
