Saw that shot the other day as well Ian, once in a life time image i reckon, looks like a snow caped mountain of dust.

Remarkable image. The atmosphere never ceases to amaze me with its many phenomena.

Is it your picture Ian? I think I remember seeing in on thewest.com.au quoted as being off the coast of Onslow?

No, it's not mine, I got it from a friend who works up-north and was there during the event. Who took it - I don't know.
Looks like a mobile-phone photo, but it's really remarkable ... :wink:

I'm 99% sure this is the Onslow dust storm and not Narelle.
At work on my phone at the mo, but can verify when I get home later.

Actually, now I think about it, Narelle never made landfall, so yes it is the Onslow dust storm

Also, I always like to credit a photograph. TheWest gives credit of this photo to Brett Martin of perthweatherlive.com ... he's got some more pics of it on his site

Onslow had another dust storm yesterday!
Dunno if this link will work but here goes anyway:
