These are a few pictures I snapped during the two dust storms that swept across most of easterly Australia in the past few days. The first two photos were taken on 26 September looking towards picnic point area, the third photo (sorry about it’s orientation, couldn’t fix it) was taken looking from outside our house on 23 September.

The combination of low pressure systems and a cold front moving across from central australia, caused very high winds which swept up large amounts of top soil from areas around Lake Eyre. This inundated everyone from around Sydney up to south east Queensland.
