Not that I know, but what I personally think is that sandstorms happen in desserts ( Southern Africa) etc. But if there was sandstorms in canada, I would not really know what to do, so just in case search up safety tips. You never know when to be prepared! So yeah I hope I helped.

loose dirt is blown by wind and because there is nothing to hold down the sand it is blown with the wind....oh!

This wind is usually caused by convection currents is usually strong enough to move entire sand dunes. Air is unstable when heated, and this instability in the air will cause the mixture of higher winds in the troposphere with winds in the lower atmosphere, producing strong surface winds. Sandstorms can interfere with travel, and sometimes obliterates entire roads, and dry, flat regions, such as parts of the western United Sates. In Kuwait, the month of April is known as 'sandstorm month'. Sandstorms that come from Northern Africa and drift across Europe are called 'Sahara Sand Storms'.

The Middle East is one of the regions most affected by dust, in the world, next to Africa. Dust or sand storms are caused by the outflow from low-pressure cells passing through a desert area from west to east. Sand storms can occur throughout the year in the Middle East, but the prime months are May-September.

Dust storms are most likely to occur on hot summer days under certain atmospheric conditions, so meteorologists can frequently predict the possibility of these storms. The last recorded devastating sandstorm in American history was the Dust Bowl which caused the depression. One that occurred near Tucson, Arizona, on July 16, 1971, was extensively documented by meteorologists.

Field observations, accompanied by trapping of airborne solids, showed that in Israel most of the sand and dust storms occur in the fall and winter seasons when dry periods change to periods of wet weather.

In Iceland, they have a lot of volcano's so most of the disasters are from volcanic eruptions. They also have earthquakes but not as often but when they come they can be pretty powerful. Other than that, there arent as many records of other natural disaters.

Dust storms occur when fast-moving winds scour surface dirt and transport it across the ground. The term sandstorm usually applies to large quantities of heavier sand being blown by extremely strong winds. Where accumulations or dunes exist in dry climates, sand and dirt is easily picked up and moved horizontally, forming new dunes or accumulating on downwind land and structures.

If you are in a storm-prone area, carry a mask designed to filter out small particulates, and bring airtight goggles to protect your eyes. It's also wise to carry a supply of water in case you get stuck in a storm. Dust storms are usually accompanied by high temperatures, and you can quickly become dehydrated in the dry heat and high winds. Wear or carry clothing that covers your body to protect you from the sandblasting, and also to keep you warm in case of the frigid winds of a winter dust storm, which can quickly lead to hypothermia.

It is a very windy time, usually in the dry areas.

Sure anywhere where there's wind and sand there is...

China's far west has been hit by the worst sandstorm in decades. The storm Saturday hit many parts of far western China's Xinjiang region, with wind speeds in the popular tourist towns of Hami and Turpan reaching 183 kilometers per hour.

There is no way to know.

Sandstorms happen yearly in Egypt. Most sandstorms will occur during the months of March and April and they will last about a couple of hours to half a day.

A DUST STORM or SAND STORM is a meteorological phenomenom common in arid and semi-aridf regions.SAND SORMS arise when a gust front or other strong wind blows loose sand and dirt from a dry surface..

A geologist studies sandstorms. They study the saltation which is the main mechanism for the movement of sand. They study how they form and how they move.

Sandstorms can dry up water, people, plants, and anything that contains water. Also, it can cause suffocation and maybe even blindness! (if you keep your eyes open to long and sometimes just if you have your eye open.)

Sand-storms can cause blindness. And sandstorms can dry up water and anything else with water in it!

Sand storms can cause hacking coughs, and the sand and dust have also been known to be capable of carrying 'infectious diseases'. Sand particles, unlike dust ones, will clog air passages, and cause the person who breathes them in to choke. Dust particles may simply cause an allergic reaction

because it is carried by the heavy wind

Once blowing sand reaches a wind speed of only 15 MPH or more,

it can cause damage to your home or car's painted exterior. Most

reportable insurance companies cover this type of damage on your

home and your car, if you have full coverage.

Whatever you can do with sandpaper, sand in a strong enough wind

can also do.
