What caused dust storms to become even larger and more destructive in the 1930s? heavy rains hit the midwest and flooded the land. the great plains experienced a series of unseasonably cold summers. several hurricanes from the gulf of mexico swept inland across the plains states. severe droughts hit the midwest, making the soil dry and more vulnerable to winds.

Because of farming practices at the time, it resulted in erosion and loss of topsoil that became friable and powdery. The persistent heat and drought caused crops to fail leaving the fields exposed to wind erosion. High winds then generated the massive dust storms.
