The dust storm caught a Rover in the Valley of Perseverance (Perseverance Valley). In itself this is not uncommon. It usually occurs in the summer, when the planet approaches the perihelion (closest to Sun point of the orbit).

At a time when the South polar region, approaching the star, the carbon dioxide frozen in the polar cap evaporates. The atmosphere thickens, the temperature rises, causing dust particles to rise above. In this case, a dust cloud can reach a height of 60 kilometers.
