Some of you may have heard about the recent duststorms in Australia

I was out at Cobar about 500klms from Broken Hill at the time of this and it was surreal to say the least

The actual storm was 400klms wide and over 2000 klms long with an estimated 5,000,000 tons of Aus going east

That looked scary! Be okay if the image was 'fade to black' but to actually go black in real life....

This country grinds to a halt after half an inch of snow. Imagine if we had those dust storms here?

Hey Melter Australia aint much different,after an event like that about the only useful thing done is the shoveling of bull manure
