It rained mud last night

It was hard to see out of the side windows in my van when I took the little kids to school this morning because of all the mud. Mike went out to get in his car to go to work and decided both cars needed to be hosed off.
The news said it probably was dirt from all the wind yesterday, it definitely wasn't ash from that volcano- I lived 50 miles away from Mt. St. Helens when she blew, I know what ash looks like.
