Anyone else’s car getting covered in black dust from the rain today?

I noticed quite a bit of this this morning and gave my car a quick wash.
After a light shower this afternoon it’s back again. (SW Scotland). It’s
not like the Sahara dust we had recently. Definitely black.

Black beaches are common on volcanic islands, so perhaps dust from a
volcano. I think that Etna and Stromboli are both currently erupting.
It has been bright and sunny here today :-)

This is ash from a volcano. I remember seeing that when I could see. Now the
question is, where is the nearest erupting volcano? Of course it might be
from an area where the lava is decomposing and the wind has somehow brought
it up. I doubt if its from the burning of wood, as that sort of ash does not
stay up there for long enough. Pummice dust is much highlighters.
You would need to look at high altitude winds. Brian

Looking at the Beeb's weather map, Iceland seems more likely. Wind is N to NE
today, with the high centred between Scotland and Iceland.
