During the 1930's dust storms ravaged the great plains. The worst of these became known as Black Sunday. When did Black Sunday happen? Just how bad was it? In the early part of the 20th century, over farming, poor soil soil conservation techniques, and excessive livestock grazing had created a dangerous situation. The top soil of the great plains region had been stripped of its nutrients, as well as the natural vegetation that had once held the soil in place. Then 1930's saw the first year of what would eventually be an 11 year drought, in which precipitation in the form of rainfall, snowfall, and other forms of moisture was just a fraction of the normal levels, these factors combine to dehydrate the soil and turn it into a fine powdery dust. The wind picked up large amounts of this dust and generated massive dust storms, which swept across the plains. The storms could reach more that 10,000 feet in height and produce winds from 50 to 80 miles per hour. The storms came to be known as Black Blizzards.

This Music kinda Annoying!

Just like the album from cypress hill?!?!

WOW!!!

If Australian farmers want handouts from the government then they really need to pick up their game in future. Getting massive dust storms is only the result of farmer's not managing the land correctly. Australia should seriously look at what's happened in the past in the U.S. and try to learn from their farmers mistakes.

My late mother in law when she was alive remembered the dust storm

omg i cry i feel so bad

Thanks this helped me for my term paper to Shout out to you !
