Cielo Rojo en Sydney

Hola a todos..

El día 23 de Septiembre, me llego una noticia muy rara...

Mi novia me comento que Sydney había desaparecido... Yo me quede ¡¡¡COMO!!!, "DESAPARECIÓ", apoco David Copperfield tenia cuentas con Sydney.
Bueno, mi novia termino diciéndome que hubo fuertes vientos, los cuales habían levantado arena rojiza del desierto llevándola hasta Sydney, cubriéndola con un manto rojo.

Investigando en Internet, encontré que estos ultimos dias ha habio vientos muy fuertes en NSW y en Australia del Sur provocando que se levantara arena rojiza del desierto australiano llevándola a la ciudad de Sydney.

Esta ultima amanecio con polvo rojo como marte y hubo muchas contingencias.

Se suspendieron los vuelos a la ciudad, los cuales fueron redireccionados a Melbourne o a Brisbane.

La visibilidad era muy poca, por lo cual transitar por las calles se volvio todo una faena, ya que solo se podía ver a unos cuantos metros de distancia.

Este acontecimiento no es nada común en las ciudades australianas, por lo cual se le pidió a la gente que se abstuviera de salir y que mejor se quedara en casa.


Saludos





Hi Mates..

The last September 23, 2009, I recieved a very strange news.

My girlfriend told me that Sydney had disappeared. 

I said WHAT!!!, "DISAPPEARED", That's insane. Has David Copperfield had problems with Sydney?.

Well, with all that confusion, my girl told me that the problem was produced by strong winds from the last days, those winds loaded with red sand from the outback covered Sydney with a red dust cloak.Searching on the Internet, I found a lot of information about that situation.

I found that the cause of that rare event, like my girl said, was produced by the strong winds from NSW and South Australia, those winds lifted a lot of dust from the outback cause is too dry out there, this caused that in the morning, the sky of Sydney looked like sky of mars, producing many contingencies.

The airport suspended the service and all airplanes on route was redirected to the most nearby airports like those Melbourne or Brisbane.

The visibility was so blurred and caused a slow down on the street traffic, because you could only see a few feet ahead.

This is not a common event on Australian Cities, that is why the goverment asked the people to don´t leave his homes and stay on them.

Here you can find some pics about this rare event..
