How does a loess deposit from?
Continued high winds will pick up dust and silt particles and blow clouds of them cross-country until the wind dies down and the dust and silt fall to earth. Sometimes, especially where I live in North Idaho, the loess (luss) was formed into what look like sand dunes. Dust dunes, I guess.

How can you prevent dust from blowing?
Wet the dust. It will blow when it dries again, but if it is a dusty dirt road, building an asphalt road would prevent the dust blowing. Or if it is ground, planting vegetation such as grass would reduce the levels of dust.
How fast do dust storms move?
A dust devil is much slower. Dust devils are generally much smaller and than tornadoes. They develop in areas where the sun heats the ground to high temperatures, generating spinning updrafts that lift dust and other light material. Dust devils rarelyproduce damage, with winds commonly ranging from 20 to 40 mph. Tornadoes may look similar to dust devils, but are far mor dangerous. Even relatively weak tornadoes can produce winds well over 70 mph. In rare cases winds over 300 mp may occur. Most tornadoes develop from supercells, a type of severe, rotating thunderstorm.
