    • Sand Storm works similar to any rainstor...

      Differences in temperatures create wind (in this case, with temperature differences from 130 F to 75F in the desert of Iraq, a big difference)--winds that can push the storm across the desert at up to 65mph (110kmp). Because there is no moisture and no vegetation to hold down all the sand and dust, a huge cloud of dirt is created. Sometimes so much debris is flung into the air that it can block out the sun, as seen here. The sand particles aren't beach sand, but more along the lines of dust particles--some of them microscopic--that will get inside of EVERYTHING. This storm raised the air temperature almost 20 degrees F, reduced visibility to virtual zero, and you could taste the dust just like you were licking the dirt under your shoes.

  • Sandstorms

    are dangerous. When it hits your skin, it's like something biting you all over. Sand is used in sandblasting. It is very powerful that it cuts.

    • stupid ass comment

      A. amazing scary sand cloud-hellish.
      B. I am 100% against this war and idiot president, but people join military for many reasons- like learning to pilot aircraft without being rich-they don't expect to go to war- so don't be such a moron-open your eyes.
