What does the weather code DU mean?

Dust Fog Smoke Haze

Correct Answer:

Dust

Explanation:

In weather reporting, two-letter codes quickly convey what’s in the air. DU stands for dust in the atmosphere, and you’ll see it in METARs and other aviation weather reports when dust is present and likely reducing visibility. This is different from other common codes for related conditions: fog is FG, smoke is FU, and haze is HZ. So the weather code means dust.
