The most unusual feature about the western storms was that they consisted of dust and not water.

b/They consisted of dust and not water.

Explanation:

Overgrazing over large stretches of lands in the west left these lands with negligible grass covers and made them vulnerable to soil erosion due to winds.

The stormy winds that blew over these lands carried the dust to other parts of the country on a large scale and resulted in what came to be known as the dust storm.

These storms caused the most severe drought in the history of the United States and added to the already grievous intensity of the great depression.

|B| / Because the air created dust storms due to fog going though the plains and over planting of corn or other plants it would leave the soil lose and could easily catch to the wind. Most areas had little to no trees they give soil something to grip to.
