A dust storm is a strong and violent wind that carries silt, clay, dust, and other particles that can travel in the air for long distances.
Overfarming and poor land management practices such as extensive plowing and failure to rotate crops led to the topsoil becoming vulnerable to erosion in the Great Plains in the 1930s. This resulted in severe dust storms known as the Dust Bowl.
The term used to refer to these areas is the Dust Bowl. It was a period of severe dust storms that greatly damaged the agriculture and ecology of the American and Canadian prairies during the 1930s.
Yes. There are blizzards, snow storms, dust storms, ice storms, tornadoes (though they come from thunderstorms), and cyclones (including hurricanes).
Dust storms most frequently occur in arid and semi-arid regions with dry soil, such as deserts and plains. Some of the notable regions prone to dust storms include the Sahara Desert in Africa, the Arabian Peninsula, and parts of the southwestern United States like Arizona and New Mexico.
Wind storms, such as dust storms and thunderstorms, do not have a low-pressure center like cyclones or hurricanes. Instead, these storms are driven by the movement of air masses with different temperatures or moisture levels.

Dust storms blow over the Sahara Desert
In 1934, the Dust Bowl era in the United States, there were numerous dust storms that inflicted severe damage to the environment and agriculture. Exact counts of the number of dust storms in that year vary, but it is estimated that there were hundreds of dust storms during the Dust Bowl period, particularly in 1934.
134 dust storms in the first 9 months of 1937.
The dust bowl was in the "Great Depression". It was a nick-name for dust storms because the storms were like "rolling black smoke".
