The problem is that there is no trees in western Oklahoma. Western Oklahoma is nothing but dirt and tumble weeds. The trees may help for eastern Oklahoma.
Ahh yes you are right I forgot about that. It's what 50 miles wide and seems to be traveling quickly Along with what ever particles it picks up with it. This might just be the next big dust bowl kind of odd with the econemy and all. Its the next great dust bowl super deprsion!
Well, there used to be. In fact, in the early thirties, shelter belts were planted to prevent this. Some if not many still remain and there is at least one monument to them. I am just sayin' they are still there. But one or more the farmers can only do so much if you can imagine the winds we have had the last several springs. I am just sayin' 'cause I am from there. I from my limited travels believe it is worse in Jackson, Tillman, harmon counties but there are OK Shooters here from there so they will give you a better assessment. Just what little I know.
Yea. I grew up out there. I spent many years eating red dirt. LOL. After living in STL and Yukon, I could never move back.
I'm not sure how much help trees will be.
During the 30's, topsoil from Oklahoma and Kansas blew all the way out into the Atlantic ocean covering ships in a quarter inch of topsoil sometimes.
Most people on the east coast didn't even believe the stories about the dust storms, until the dirt started to fall on them.

Well, you are home folk! Damned' where are you from? As you can imagine. Lone Wolf, but many friends, etc., from Granite, Lone Wolf, Hobart, Gotebo, Roosevelt. Cut Wheat, plowed, mo boarded, hauled hay, etc. all over, but most are long gone. Please, tell me who you know, I probably know their people, so to speak.
Wait a minute, Biggs, it was or is dirt there, not red clay here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
