A Sahara storm is commonly referred to as a "dust storm" or "sandstorm." These storms occur when strong winds lift large amounts of dust and sand from the desert, reducing visibility and impacting air quality. They can travel long distances, affecting regions far beyond the Sahara itself. In some cases, they are also called "haboobs," particularly when they are associated with thunderstorms.
