it's not that uncommon here in the states. I lived in El Paso for five years and storms like these happen nearly every other spring day. It's cool to see it rolling in, but it sucks when you are on the expressway and you can't even see the car in front of you.
Other than a trip to Las Vegas, my only desert experience has been at Fort Huachuca, Arizona. I loved how clear it was there. To look at a mountain so clear that you would think it was just a few miles away...only to find out that it's 50-75 miles away. I wouldn't be able to take living through sandstorms. Fog is one thing. I don't mind breathing humidity. Breathing sand is quite different.
