Particles of sand move around and destroy people, animals and buildings. The sand moves around the land for about acouple of hours. A famous dust storm that occurred in the early 1900s from about the 1920s to 1939 was called the dust bowl. During a dust storm, it is very windy and dangerous outdoors. Therefore, you should never go outside during a dust storm.
