Ha! Tell me about it! I can't walk anywhere today without it being orange. I literally cannot see 15 meters in front of me. It's that bad today. Not quite the worse, but if the winds pick up, it'll be bad.

I wasn't at the base in that video, but we had a nasty sandstorm yesterday at the base I'm on. It didn't roll in like that, but everywhere was orange.

Been caught outside the wire in Tikrit when a nasty one hit. Orange all around and 5 mph to get back with at the most 15m visibility
