Dust devils are quite common and form when the air right at the ground heats up substantially and the air aloft is cool. That causes the air to rise and spin creating a whirlwind that picks up dust and dirt to create a dust devil. They are MUCH weaker than tornadoes and rarely cause damage.

Cool dust devil (or in this case, sand devil) on the beach in Garden City near the pier. Thanks Marty Hipp! wpde.com/chimein | WPDE ABC15
