Title: Sand Storm
Post by: sabrina on April 17, 2013, 10:15:25 am

Sand storms in Gamrie yesterday. What a sight just great clouds of dirt coming of the newly seeded fields. My windows were covered and so were parts of the roads. Would have made driving difficult. This morning its now raining so that will be a welcome for the farmers.

Never thought that I would be pleased to see rain, but I hate wind, spent all day yesterday trying to stop things blowing away, now if we could just have a bit of heat the grass will grow :fc: :raining: :sunshine:

Sand/dust storms in Yorkshire yesterday too.  There were sand/dust drifts on the side of the road and in the hedge bottoms.  Light rain today has dampened things down again though.

Sand storms here in Carnoustie too. So glad I hadn't done my spring cleaning  :innocent:
