Sydney's dust storms... the morning we all woke up on MARS..

Okay, so yesterday morning my partner woke me up quite concerned... did not know why really, but she said to meet he in the lounge room so I did, and I saw this outside:

I thought I had woken up on MARS!

No doubt some of you heard about the dust storms that swept over Sydney yesterday, blanketing the entire state of New South Wales with red/orange dust.


GREAT pics on the UK daily mail:

I had to drive to work in that... could not see much, but got to work and back home safely. Anyway, today is pretty much clean up time... everything has a thichk layer of dust and iron on it. Its horrible.

What the <beeeeep>!?

I get those storms quite frequently up here. 'Course, they're white though. And leaves no iron residue (that I know of)... And it all melts by itself when spring comes along. And it's not hazardous to your health to walk outside breathing it in... But... Other than that, it's almost the same!

You should have taken some Video Cub, maybe AC could use it in the new Tex Game, because that made me think if Tex, instead of Mars... But I can see the Mars feeling as well...

Actually it reminded me of the Red from Overseer, remember when he visits Chelsee's apartment, or when he looks out his office window. Or perhaps the red sky from UAKM. It was definitely quite an interesting experience. We another anothin small dust storm a few days later, but it was more of a brown haze (looked like heavy smog) during the day. Finally got around to washing the car this weekend, but there are so many people with filth cars that just have not had the time. The lines at the car was are hughe, they must be making so much $$$!

Yeah I heard on the news, they did an interview with a Car Wash Owner, he said they did well over a hundred cars already and it was still pretty bright outside... Don't forget to change your air filter in your car too, since you had to drive in it... I'm sure your car sucked in plenty of that junk...
