Residents of West Virginia and Maryland woke up Friday to find mysterious white dust falling from the sky and coating their cars — fueling conspiracy theories and an investigation by environmental officials in at least one state.
Sherry Miller of Inwood, West Virginia, said she and her husband were confused when they saw something unusual in the driveway. It was too warm for it to be snowing.“It looked like ash. I asked my husband if it was from the wood stove and he said, ‘No, it’s all over Berkeley County.'” Terry Fletcher, a spokesperson for the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection, said on Friday that there was no indication it was related to the devastating derailment.
On Monday, the department eased concerns and had determined that the mysterious dust was predominantly pollen, with trace amounts of mineral matter.
