I was in Winters and the dust storms were raging. I couldn’t write at my desk because of the sand on the paper. I kept dusting it off and finally gave up and headed back to the main office in Abilene. It was hard staying on the highway with the winds. Then a wee little bit of rain came, just enough to turn the sand into mud. No one could see out their windshields. You couldn’t pull over because then someone would plow into you so it was a mess. I had a coke and squirted that on the windshield a couple times before it was empty. Scary, scary drive. When I did get back to Abilene, the car was solid mud and was told winds were 76 mph. You couldn’t pay me enough to live out there again.
That sounds terrifying! West Texas gets some monster dust storms..much worse than here.
