   What causes a dust storm?

   • Dust storms typically occur when strong winds sweep across dry areas without plant cover, explains Natalie Mahowald, a professor of atmospheric science at Cornell University. As the wind strafes the earth, it breaks up the layer of dust on top of the soil and lifts the light, tiny dust particles into the air.

   Where do dust storms occur?

   • Eventually, the dust and wind combine to create enormous clouds that roll across the landscape. Historically, dust storms have been most intense in dry regions of the American southwest, which were nicknamed the Dust Bowl in the 1930s for the prevalence of dust storms there.

   How do dust storms affect drivers?

   • Dust storms affect drivers mainly by making it impossible to see, but dust can also decrease tires’ traction on the road, causing cars to spin out of control. Beyond traffic fatalities, dust storms also worsen diseases like asthma and harm the lungs. “This dust gets into people’s respiratory systems,” says Mahowald. “It’s not good for humans.”
