Thread: Dust it's every where

Lolol I know it's a very late reply, but I have to say, when I woke up that morning at about 6:30am, I thought that there was a volcano erupting nearby and seriously freaked out. I mean, the sky was red! I should've kept up with the news, because then I'd have known that it was a dust storm. Canberra had it the day before us so it was nothing new to most people.

Here's a picture from the front of my house. Normally you can see the Centrepoint Tower from this view.

Where did it happen but I would do the same too its fun but bad like so many other things next time to protect your lungs a little by covering your mouth with something like a shirt.

Well that picture was from Sydney, but it was pretty much all over the east coast. The dust was red because the dirt from the middle of Australia is red (like so), and because of the arid conditions and strong winds, it brought the dust to the cities. Yeah, our dust storms are cool. Cleaning up was horrible though lol.

That sucks how long did it go on and did you get to miss school or something like that.

It cleared up by midday. School was still on but if you had asthma or any breathing difficulties then you were told to stay home. I didn't go though lol.
