Dust Storm

Hi Everybody,
I am interested in creating a dust storm for one of my levels, I want a thin layer of dust that is blowing across the entire mission area, thin in some arrears and thicker in others.
Has anyone done anything like this before? If not how would I go about creating my dust storm? I was thinking about creating a partial effect but was unsure how to get it to cover the entire level.

I got the precipitation effects working for rain and snow, even got some leaves blowing in the wind but can't quite get a realistic dust storm working. I think the trouble is with my texture.
Do you know of any free examples of dust storm like effects?
Having an example to work from would help me to correct my problem?

One of Tim Aste's content packs has a dust storm precipitation system. You can look at the preview videos to try and see what it looks like there. Obviously getting the source itself wouldn't be free though.
