Red Sydney

I heard about this on Tuesday night, and was completely baffled at the pictures I was seeing of Sydney, engulfed in red dust. Even my mum-in-law rang me to tell me that Australia was aglow. Apparently it's the worst dust storm the country's seen in seven decades.

You have to admit it's quite a beautiful sight but unfortunately horribly messy, and terrible for asthma suffers like myself. I hear the dust storm's died down now, so residents have the unenviable task of cleaning the red crap off their cars and homes.
