A sudden dust storm from Texas left many Arkansans with dirty cars, prompting a rush to local car washes for a quick clean.
PINE BLUFF: If you were out and about in Pine Bluff on Saturday, you probably saw a ton of cars lined up at the car wash. It was wild! People were scratching their heads, wondering how their cars got so dusty overnight. Mckenna Luckett was one of them.
She thought her car was dirty from rain, but it turns out it was just the Texas dust storm that rolled in while everyone was sleeping. “I just had to come over here and get a car wash because it was too dusty,” she said.
Take 5 in Pine Bluff was one of the busiest spots. The manager, Andrew Ellis, mentioned they usually see about 190 cars on a normal Saturday. But that day? They serviced over 300! “We got to see a lot of people and meet a lot of people today,” he said, making the best of the unexpected rush.
So, if you woke up to a dusty car, you weren’t alone. Everyone was in the same boat, trying to scrub off that surprise layer of dirt!
