Dust Storm September 23rd 2009.

Hi guys,
So I'm sure any of you aussie's would know about the eerie and phenomenal dust storm that us east coasters experienced yesterday the 23rd. It was so amazing, id never seen or really even heard of a dust storm prior to this happening.
It occurred due to a low front coming across from South Australia, ripping up kilos of red top soil from the arid areas of Australia and dragging them across picking up more and coating the towns, cities and everything in a layer of red/orange dust. The Front is said to have travelled at 65km/hr as it hit the east coast.

So after browsing hundreds of photos of the dust storm affecting areas, i decided to post some of my favourites, as well as my own, of the dust storm from my parents place near the base of the Glasshouse Mountains QLD.
These photos are truly amazing.
