These can be pretty nasty, but rare. A massive one of this size hit Melbourne (around 3million or so people) in '85, pics are stunning, everything was covered in a thick layer of red dust for months.
Never seen one myself but then again, the Australian Outback (tm) hold about as much appeal for me as digging out my eye with a rusty spoon.
