This had happened to one of the Rovers previously. Then another storm came along and blew the dust off solar panels.

This time, storms were longer. It is not just solar panels that worry Rover drivers. Everything in both Rovers were exposed to very severe weather. Eventually we will learn what was and was not damaged. First, both Rovers need another storm to again blow dust off the solar panels. This story is probably a misrepresentation by a reporter. More likely, it's just another story in the life of two Rovers.
