That is quite freaky - especially the comparison photo that shows you what it normally looks like in the day.
Our IT guy/Office Manager lives over there and emailed us a picture he took - I'll upload it in a bit. They're supposed to be doing a race over the bridge this weekend but looks like it may be called off due to the dust storms.
Imagine bein in the top of a tower block over there, i think it'd be quite scary
This is the picture that our Office Manager emailed from Australia.
Oooft. I think it looks quite cool.
it looks as if someone nicked Australia and put it on Mars.
My Head Office is in Sydney and someone photo shopped this one
Don't forget people it's all due to Global Warming or is it climate change this week,watched the news last night and some idiots were out jogging in it,the last time I seen anything like that was in Saudi Arabia a big dust storm outside Riyadh,it,s great if you are repainting your car and need to go down to bare metal :-)
Reminds me of the London smogs of the '50s and '60s, which were actually worse because of the poluting chemicals, mainly from the large amount of coal burned in those days!
Times do get better....in some ways!
