Wow.. that's some biblical gak right there..

I can totally understand the ancients inventing various gods to explain this sort of thing if you are living in a cave.

Eh. We get those periodically in the desert southwest too. I imagine Australia is less than impressed as well.

Anywhere you have high winds and exposed sand/dust, you get sandstorms. Not unlike how having high humidity in a temperate zone leads to thunderstorms and tornadoes.

Yep, driven through a couple of them in Arizona - though I can't judge scale/size, etc. It's definitely intimidating looking.

There is a 5 and 10 story picture int eh screen cap, and this towers over that. That is a pretty tall sandstorm.

When I was in Iraq we had our share of sand storms, I don't recall to many of them actually looking like a wall of fething sand heading at us (seriously, it was like, one day, it would just be hazy, then by lunch the sun would look red and you'd go "ohh, must be a sand storm on then", it was kind of weird)

Its the different sand I think.

The Sahara has more fine sand particles which allows for higher altitude dust in addition to the lower sand elsewhere. Which is why they get the very distinct walls of sand rather than a nebulous haze.
