A plain flew over and purged itself?

It happened frequently when I was stationed at Altus AFB, OK.
We'd get a dust storm from the west and rain from the south. They would meet over Altus and we would get... mud flurries!
It always seemed to happen right after I washed my car.

While doing a job in Pampa several years ago, the season's first blue norther blew through around Holloween. Not only did the temperature drop 60° in an hour, it snowed mud. Oh, Brrr & Yuck!

For $25, the car wash on Fairmont in Pasadena got rid of my "brown rain" problem. They even washed the dog box in the back of my pick up for me...

A guy once told me when he was working in West Texas he saw frozen mud balls coming down. It was like hail but it was frozen mud.

Yep, West Texas/Panhandle weather is about as stark as the landscape.

Both of ours caught it also. Looks great on a white car.

I have a brand new TPO white roof on a building I'm working on, I will try and post a photo. Amazing.

Even up in Allen, but that's probably the result of the sewer line work that has been going on for months in our neighborhood.
