...Areas of Blowing Dust This Afternoon and Early Evening...

Strong northwest winds gusting to 35 and 45 mph will continue to
produce blowing dust through the region. In very localized areas,
visibility may fall between 1 and 2 miles, and may even fall
to one half mile in open farm fields.

Winds will gradually weaken this evening, which should lessen the
blowing dust potential.
