Wind + Dirt + Rain
I've never had dirt cover my car after a wind/rain storm.
Not like in that video, that's for sure
Reminds me of the previous weird fog from a few months ago

Mud rain? Yes, usually when there's a massive windstorm in Oklahoma that carries aloft an atomic fuckton of red clay dust and then dumps it here. It's happened a couple of times, at least.
Takes a dry windstorm to pick up the dust and then a rainstorm to flush it out of the clouds.
No conspiracy, just Nature being a mother.
Must be specific to certain regions. I've lived in a few countries and never experienced anything like that.
When I was a kid my dad told me about this time it rained fish and frogs in ohio. I thought he was yanking my leg but it really is a thing. Not fully grown ones, tiny minnows and barely changed tadpoles.
My first thought was, any paper mills or other industrial uses for a giant smoke stack.
Thanks to trump they are prolly removing filters and shit because they arent worried about being fined by the EPA.
God damn, chillicothe ohio. Has a paper processing plant there, or at least it did. Like it always smelled bad as a kid but then around the clinton administration they were forced to actually change and maintenance their filters, which helpd tremendously. Yeah pretty much first time trump got in the first time I believe he repealed some of those laws and the smell got considerably worse again. I imagine its still like that.
Who doesnt love smelling sulfur 24/7.
I remember as a kid playing in the creek and me and my sibling s would walk up the creek where there was a farmer who had about 100 some cattle. He would smile and wave at us.
Turned out that shit head was dumping all his cattles feces/piss into the creek and we were swimming in it, what a stellar dude.
EPA fined his ass a few times years later, bet hes fucking loving the trump administration now.
In Italy, we would get it coming up from the Sahara desert.
The foxweather link I posted has some good info on the most recent phenomenon.
