[#Dust devils on #Mars] They come in different sizes, occur frequently, ... and sometimes even merge, annihilate each other! For over four years, the #camera and #microphone installed on the #Perseverance rover have been observing their formation, movement ... and disappearance. The result is a better understanding of Martian weather conditions.
[#Tourbillons de #poussière sur #Mars] Ils sont de tailles différentes, se produisent fréquemment, ... et parfois même fusionnent, s'annihilent ! Depuis plus de quatre ans, la #caméra et le #microphone installés sur le rover #Perseverance observent leur formation, leur déplacement ... et leur disparition. S'ensuit une meilleure connaissance des conditions météorologiques martiennes.
Middlebury-based Cluster member @jmunroe quoted in today's medis coverage of findings from our source-to-sink study of #dust in the #CriticalZone.
“The samples that we collected, the analyses we did, reinforced the idea that the urban dust there in Salt Lake, in Provo, is different from natural dust. It has components in it, which do have sources in an urban landscape, the things we would expect to find in a place where there is a lot of development."

Dust storm in southern New Mexico. Not an April Fools joke.
Many highways closed due to zero visibility.

This awkward moment when it's sunny but the sky is white.
(your reminder to avoid spending time outside if you're in Japan today, and to wear a mask if you have to)
Droughts are increasing. Global warning dries out continents, increases coastal formed storms. Canada's forests burning, farms failing, dust storms growing.

Last night's dust storm over New Mexico continued to rage through the night, and sunrise shows it has reached Louisiana, Arkansas, and other states to the north of them. (See screenshot - dust storm is highlighted with red dots.)

Dust storm and many wind driven fires in the southwest US. Same song, 22nd verse.
One fire is about a half hour drive from me:
https://app.watchduty.org/i/44174
"Emergency personnel were juggling road closures due to dust storms and high winds—San Augustin Pass, just east of Las Cruces, reported a gust at 93 mph.
US Highway 54 was briefly closed from the southern Otero County line near El Paso to the northern Otero County and Lincoln County lines due to high winds, blowing dust and vehicle wrecks. Crews could be heard over the radio leaving an accident on Highway 54 to head towards the Mayhill-adjacent fire.
The Otero County Electric Cooperative (OCEC) reported dozens of outages affecting thousands of customers from Timberon to Carrizozo. Line crews are working on restoring power to the affected areas."

Okay, these people should NOT BE DRIVING in a zero visibility dust storm. This is how you get massive pileups. #duststorm #dust #NMwx https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3cz8xPYBfo
Dust storm is now shifting into Texas. Avoid driving, significant possibility of pileups in the dust areas. (also, tends to knock over semis) #duststorm #dust #TXwx #NMwx 3/18/25 2016CT
