Blowing in the Wind

I found a picture on BBC News, taken today near where I live. Although I missed most of the yearly sandstorms while traveling outside of Egypt, I definitely did not miss this one, and my hair, eyes, and mouth are currently full of grit. Cairo is basically a dustbowl and because it's set in a valley, the sand from the Sahara blows in, and never leaves.
