Prairie winds create dust-choked skies

Date:

Mother Nature whipped up a fierce dust storm on the evening of May 14 that delivered an umber-coloured sky, reduced visibility on the highway and had top soil and vegetation blowing off fields. The dust was so thick in the RM of Armstrong (shown here along PR 231) that it looked as though wildfires had broken out.
