High Plains residents are used to wind and dust, but an ongoing drought and recent tropical-storm-level winds have brought some epic dust storms.
A motorist approaches an intersection southeast of Lubbock on Feb. 14. High winds kicked up a dust storm that blanketed parts of West Texas., The Texas Tribune’s daily newsletter that keeps readers up to speed on the most essential Texas news.
While there were no wildfires this week, the region has been under a red flag warning. And a high wind advisory. And a visibility warning. And an air-quality warning, too. “The faster winds can get to the surface better than they can along the I-35 corridor between Dallas and Oklahoma City,” Sincavage said. “Unfortunately, with the wind comes all the lovely dust.”
“It was horrible,” Lanita said of this week’s dust storms. “It really kicks up your allergies, and you can’t get outside and do anything like walk or take the dog out.”

The Lone Star State is home to the most non-Hispanic, single-race Black residents. The single biggest reason? Slavery. But there's nuance to the answer too. Deborah Liles, the W.K. Gordon Chair of Texas history at Tarleton State University, explains what may have kept some Black residents in Texas after the Civil War, and Amber Sims, the executive director of the nonprofit Young Leaders, Strong City, details the progress that's been made and the steps we still need to take.
