    The Orange Mist.
    "There's something in the mist!!!"
    "God is judging everyone."

    Sound like a good Youtube video.
    Go for it and be safe.

    Australia teleported to Mars (or big dust storm his Oz)

    I woke up this afternoon (because let's face it, me get up in the morning? Shyeah right). Anyway, I open the blinds and this is what I see.

    My first thought is "Holy crap... zombie apocalypse".

    Turns out it's some dust storm that's hit pretty much all of southeastern to northeastern Australia. Sydney woke up this morning to an orange city. It looks like Mars outside. To put it in perspective, this storm came from South Australia and has hit Sydney all the way up to Brisbane. South Australia to Brisbane is about 2400km. This is nuts!

    Dust storm turns town black in seconds

    Check out some Sydney photos. Makes what I see seem like nothing. Dust storm turns Sydney skies red

    Thats so cool yo.

    The sky looked like that one time where i'm from but it was from the setting sun instead of dust.

    I actually did pretend I was on Mars for the fun of it.

    That's crazy. Looks wicked-cool though. I'm sure it sucks being in it, but visually, it's impressive.
