Amazing morning in Sydney today - Huge dust storm has blown in and the whole city is covered in dust.

I woke at about 5.45 to a very eerie red glowing sky. Now that the sun is up, it just looks like fog, but there's dust everywhere! Car washes will be doing a roaring trade over the next couple of days.

Never seen anything like it - Thought I was living out the back of woop woop or something!

It looks like Mars! (not that I have ever been to Mars)
Is it hard to breathe?
 

Here's a cool "before and after" pic I just saw. Gives you some more idea of how bad it actually is.

I haven't seen anything like this happen in Sydney my whole life. I think I heard there was a day in 2002 or something, but I don't remember that.

Just looking out the window at work now at about 10am and it still hasn't cleared up. Pollen count is bloody high too - So that should be good for my asthma......
 
Yikes!!!! Things went crazy was Pete left!!!
