Well second dust storm has hit. Nowhere near as dramatic today though. This one just looks dirty.

Now there's fears the first one was radioactive cause it originated at Woomera. I just have one question, why the fuck were farmers whinging in the first place about their precious "topsoil" when it was clear the dust was from the fricken desert??
