The Dust Bowl of the 1930s lasted about a decade. The dust bowl winds began in 1932 but the Dust Bowl got its name from the horrendous winds beginning in 1935.The primary are â¦ a it effected was the southern Plains.The northern Plains were not hit so badly but the drought, the blowing dust, and the decline of agriculture in the region had a nationwide effect.he dreaded Dust Bowl struck the US from 1930 through 1938. It seriously affected the Rocky Mountains, North and South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas.
In 1933, there were multiple dust storms that lasted seventy days. In 1935, it stripped away an estimated 850,000 tons of good topsoil, the same year that it drove 250,000 people from their homes. Cows were found dead, bellies loaded with dust. Wheat, corn, fruit trees, grass died during the eight years of drought. It also killed people: there was so much floating particulate matter in the air that children would develop dust pneumonia --- a form of silicosis, and die of suffocation.
