mmmm dust →[More:]

We didn't get any severe storms but we are getting winds from 25-50 mph out of the southwest. And it is carrying in red dust from Texas and Oklahoma. Nasty. I can smell it inside the house with everything shut up tightly. You can barely see the moon. Plus the winds are causing some damage too. It sprinkled rain for a few minutes earlier and the raindrops were brown. Heh.

Yeah, it was a creepy afternoon. DFW's had it's worst shutdown since 9/11. The dust only stuck around for ~3.5 or 4 hours though, weretable. You may find clear skies again soon.

We had some freaky-deaky winds down here in Houston today, after it rained pretty nicely all morning. For some reason, after the wind picked up, both my cats decided it was time to shed their winter coats. *makes thhhhppptibbbitfurf noises while brushing away fur*

We didn't get dust, just cold rain driven by 30-35kt winds. Just a dark, ugly, wet and cold day.
