'Hundreds of Feet Tall': Large Dust Devil Swirls Close to Homes
A large dust devil was spotted moving across a field in Mayo, Florida, on Thursday, April 10. Video filmed by Shawn Brown shows the phenomenon tower over a field, whipping up dust as it travels. According to the https://www.weather.gov/fgz/DustDevil">National Weather Service , dust devils are "dust-filled vortices, created by strong surface heating, are generally smaller and less intense than a tornado." "We've seen quite a few dust devils in the field but on April 10 at around 2:30 pm I walked outside to go get my son from school. I noticed a large dust devil then looked up to see it was hundreds of feet tall," Brown told Storyful. (Footage by Shawn Brown/Storyful via Getty Images UGC)
