Blowing in the wind


We had floods in Dubai last month and now, only two days into the new month, we've had a sandstorm. It was carried in on strong winds which picked up serious speed on Thursday afternoon and by Friday morning visibility was very poor, the dust and grit in the air made it contact lens wearers' hell and anything that remained stationery for too long was quickly covered with a layer of fine dust. Some of the huge billboards around town had the advertising covers ripped off them and left flapping in the wind.

There are some photos here.
