Dust

A dust storm just hit town, brought in by the strong North-Westerly.The sky has turned red, the sun gives off a dirty yellow light and visibility is down to 500 metres.

At least it's not smoke.

My thermometre says it's 41C outside and 30C inside. Hooray for A/C.

Dust 2

Another dust storm has just ripped through town. Visibility is down to 200 metres. This one is so bad that THe other side of the street is noticably hazy. At least this one doesn't have a wind. It's just a big, gritty blanket, muffling sounds and giving the street lights a halo.

38C at 10pm. aagh
