Re: Dust !!
A during and after photo, here in Bayside:

The first picture shows the worst that we got in my area, and again 24 hours later.
Same camera, same settings, same location, same time of day.

Re: Dust !!
I am surprised it was so close to the first one...
I just leaned against the pillar to take the shot, and it was very near identical positioning.
From these pictures, I noticed a small gap in the leaves of one of my trees, with a tiny spot of light coming through, on both pictures, unless there is a mark on the lens

Re: Dust !!
There is a possibility of another dust storm coming through on Saturday although the Bureau of Met say that it shouldn't be so bad because most of the topsoil has already been blown away in the last storm.
About five million tonnes of soil swept across southeast Queensland and NSW yesterday.

Re: Dust !!
Well I've wiped round but decided I would do a proper spring clean on Saturday, so I'll see what colour the sky is when I get up. 
(Soooo wishing I hadn't sacked the cleaner )
