Mystery Dust in Pugent SoundSeattle’s KING5.com is reporting that some strange mystery dust in the form of an “ash-like powder” has been coating the vehicles and homes of Pugent Sound residents.


“We’ve never seen anything like this,” said David Creed.



About 30 miles away, residents in Lake Marcel north of Carnation awoke Sunday to the fine powder blanketing the neighborhood.



“Living out here in 40 years, I’ve never seen anything like it,” said Beth Marcey.



“Kind of volcanic. It reminded me of when Mount St. Helens blew,” said Bey Braun.



Above all, it has everyone scratching their heads.

So what is it tree pollen? A very thin layer of Volcanic ash? Pugent Sound residents want to know. KING5’s article also has a link to a video from KING5 that provides a much better look at the dust.
