What does sandstorm mean?
A storm that reduces visibility due to a large amount of sand suspended in the air, often caused by strong winds in arid or desert regions. A sandstorm can be severe enough to cause damage to structures and vehicles.
Example
"The tourists had to seek shelter immediately as a massive sandstorm swept through the desert, reducing visibility to almost zero."
