Default West Sussex Dust Devil?? Who Knows?


Well... this might be a complete joke to the anal crew in this newsgroup
that insist on the weather conforming to their preset requirements,
BUT,,,,,, Today we had what I can only describe as a Dust Devil here in
little olde West Sussex.

Out behind our gaff is a huge farming area, during today's heat we had a big
wind thing, suddenly my mother noticed this gentle moving mass of air of
mainly straw swirling over our property, I got home and found out a bit more
and she reported to me, her description completely fits with a dust devil,
my front and back garden are both full of loose straw from the dumping we
got.

How interesting!!??

Any one else any ideas?

Cheers
Stephen
