This is a dust storm that happened the other day about 60 miles from me in Ransom, KS.





And here, a day or two later, straight winds (no tornado) blew over a train!!

Yeah, we get some pretty nasty straight winds in Michigan too. Never had a dust storm, but we have had some nasty dammage.

Yeah, mudslides everywhere, flooded basements all over, even a few nice sized boulders came down on the Bottom Road.
