The misuse of the land and the severe drought combined to create the Dust Bowl - a vast, parched area in the Midwest. The Dust Bowl affected one hundred million acres of land. The resulting black blizzards happened when millions of tons of dirt were swept from the parched, barren fields and swirled up into the air.
