    Wow! That is scary. I hope everyone is safe -- breathing so much dust cannot be good (and you may want to change your air filters at home and even in your cars afterwards).

    how would I like to ride in that? - heh, no thank you.

    I've seen that kind of storm when I lived in Phoenix. Fascinating in a way. Bad on the lungs and other air filters.

    I was thinking of the same thing. changing the air filter in your car and in your house.

    Breathing all that dust laiden air is bad too. I understand that you can get Silicosis, similar to black lung disease. The tiny dust/sand particles act as a sand paper in your lung and scars your lung.

    Hummmmm... I think I'd take my car/bike indoors too as they fine dust and sand surely has to be abraisive and not so good on a paint job.... A la sand blasting.
