Hm, when I read this topic I was expecting something like the Black Blizzards the US had in the '30s, but this is some interesting thing. I suspect that loose soil was blown from strong winds somewhere in Australia.

Yeah, there was a thunderstorm that triggered gale force wind to come from the west. With that, came the dust from the other side of Australia. This morning it was orange, then it changed to yellowish colour. Now it has cleared up. But damn it was scary when I woke up this morning.
