Does the planet mars have storms?
Because the air on Mars is so thin, it's possible to get tremendously fast winds there, which kicks up enormous dust storms. When the first Viking Lander was scheduled to land on Mars, on July 4, 1976 (just in time for the Bicentennial of the US), a planet-wide dust storm had completely obscured the planet, and the landing had to be postponed for 2 weeks. The Viking Lander actually landed on July 20, 1976, the anniversary of the first Apollo landing on the Moon.
What happened in the dust bowl in the 1930?
Answer for KidsThe Plains of the US and Canada typically produce most of North America's grains (corn, wheat, rye, etc) and a large number of its vegetables. But a drought occurred in 1930. Dry winds in southeastern Colorado, southwest Kansas and the panhandles of Oklahoma and Texas created large and frequent dust storms across most of the agricultural farmlands. These dust storms were made worse because farmers had not been practicing good methods to prevent soil erosion. Winds lifted up the rich topsoil and turned it into dust devils and storms that limited visibility to a few feet.With so much dust swirling in the air, people and animals had difficulty breathing. And because no one could grow crops, people and animals were going hungry and getting sick. Many lost their lives. Because most people were poor, they couldn't leave. Automobiles need fresh air to run, so autos would choke in the middle of dust storms.The biggest thing to remember about the Dust Bowl of 1930s, besides the importance of preventing soil erosion, is that all of the US and all of Canada relied on the Plains in their countries to provide food across both the nations. What happens in one region or area affects many regions or areas.
