Dust storms bring strong, dry winds bringing a wall of dust reducing visibility from lingering haze.
CWB assured the public that some portion of the dust will be filtered out by a band of clouds and rain and that the impact should be limited, "so people should not worry too much."
A dust storm is a phenomenon common in arid and semi-arid regions. Dust storms arise when a gust front or other strong wind blows loose sand and dirt from a dry surface.
