问题 　　According to the BBC, the orange colouration is caused by fine particles of sand being lifted from the Sahara into the atmosphere, travelling across the world and falling back to the ground mixed in with rain and snow.It occurs once every five years or so—although this year’s orange snow is particularly vibrant, due to a desert sandstorm that was so big it was seen in NASA satellite imagery travelling across the globe, CNN reports.Social media users have posted photos of a ski resort in Sochi, Russia with its eerie orange slopes.The bizarre snow has also reportedly fallen on Bulgaria, Ukraine, Romania, and Moldova."There has been a lot of lifted sand or dust originating from North Africa and the Sahara, from sand storms which have formed in the desert." meteorologist Steven Keates from the UK Met Office told The Independent.
　　Why this year’s orange snow is particularly vibrant?
选项
答案Because of a desert sandstorm.
