Dust devil tears through park in California

CNN- A dust devil was caught on camera tearing through a park in Fairfield Tuesday.

Those at the park when it happened said there was a sudden change in the weather just before the whirlwind started picking up debris and taking the roof off an outbuilding.

“It started coming super fast and started throwing skate boards in the air,” said Anthony James, a BMX rider in the park at the time of the dust devil.

The National Weather Service says the dust devil appeared because conditions were clear, dry and hot. They also do not consider it a tornado because there was no cloud-to-ground connection.
