    Black Sunday refers to a particularly severe dust storm that occurred on April 14, 1935, as part of the Dust Bowl.[1] It was one of the worst dust storms in American history and it caused immense economic and agricultural damage.[2] It is estimated to have displaced 300 million tons of topsoil from the prairie area in the US.[3]

    On the afternoon of April 14, the residents of the Plains States were forced to take cover as a dust storm, or "black blizzard", blew through the region. The storm hit the Oklahoma Panhandle and Northwestern Oklahoma first, and moved south for the remainder of the day.[1] It hit Beaver around 4:00 p. m., Boise City around 5:15 p. m., and Amarillo, Texas, at 7:20 p. m.[1] The conditions were the most severe in the Oklahoma and Texas panhandles, but the storm's effects were felt in other surrounding areas.[1]
