A kind list member just sent me some pictures from Texas of this
phenomenon along with a description of winds. They are experiencing a
pretty intense haboob. Yup that's the word, don't laugh, it's
destructive ... just like in the Sahara, similar to the phenomenon of a
simoom, just quick and intense dust filled clouds (which will be red
 from all the back scattering as posted before) and can cause
atmospheric rain; and as he said, scary as all.

Maybe he can post the pix. (I've can if you want)

Kindest wishes
Doug

Dear List, My internet site is "lit up" with reports of strange red
clouds from
Ontario to Texas (100s of queries). This may be the result of a CME
that is/was
due to hit Earth today??? Anyone know for sure what is going on?
