Unlike the 1996 Hollywood movie that created an internet meme of a cow flying in the air, twisters, or tornadoes, are no laughing matter. Tornadoes happen in all 50 states and they take many forms. In the West, they may be known as Dust Devils, Dust Cyclones, or Sand Devils. They can be small in nature or they could be immense. The winds of Dust Devils aren’t as strong as compared to other regions, but the fact that they blanket the skyline with dust, reduce visibility by up to 100%, and can cause inhalation problems or get in your engine, still drives a need for high concern.
