- This card's effect revolves around its name. It "blows up" a card, and then one card falls down.
- This card has many counterparts:
- "Mystical Space Typhoon" is its stronger Quick-Play Spell Card counterpart released prior to this card's.
- "Driving Snow" and "Gust" are more reactive Normal Trap Card counterparts, while "Chain Whirlwind", "Wild Tornado", "Typhoon", "Heavy Storm Duster" and "Double Dust Tornado Twins" are stronger Normal Trap Card counterparts.
- This is also a weaker version of the anime-exclusive "Magnetic Storm", whose name and artwork is also based on the Mother Nature phenomena.
- Like "Solemn Judgment" and "Machine King", this card appeared in each of the first six series, except Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL.
