Unbelievable. I wondered if you guys got that mess. I was there a year ago. Poor vettes - poor clean up crew. That looks like the movie The Mummy.

I know how the dust can kick up around Firebird and Bondurant just with a minor storm...that dust storm was BIBLICAL! I'm glad I'm in Tucson...we had torrential rain and violent winds but nothing like that.

C6 uncovered in the garage, but filthy anyway from a 5000 mile road trip just completed.

It's no big deal. A little larger than most, but is insignificant when you compare it to tornados or hurricanes. The "damage" washes off with a little water.

A few years back, a dust storm ran headlong into a rain storm and it rained mud until the dust was all gone. Fun stuff.

The whole thing, quite melodramatic; looks way worse than it was....I'll deal with that anytime over a tornado or hurricane.

That first pic is spooky. Looks like something right out of "The Mummy".

I didn't think it was that big a deal either. I'm in the north side of the valley near Surprise. All we really got was a little dirty rain and some wind. It really only got a part of the valley.
