Freaky weather in Australia has caused red dust from the desert to blow right across New South Wales. Check out some of the photos in the link above. Incredible but scary at the same time.

Similar to the Dustbowl storms in the United States in the 30's.

Imagine most people will either be staying indoors or walking around wearing masks!

I liked this quote from one of the Sydney residents:

It was like being on Mars," she told the BBC, "I haven't been there, obviously, but I imagine that's what the sky would look like."
