Arabic term

Ajaja

Non-PRO Arabic Other Linguistics
Summer is here. The choking ajajas of Baghdad coat everything in a pale yellow dust.

I'm translating an anti-war article, it's written in a rather sarcastic manner, I understand that "ajajas" mean sandstorms I believe it's in the Iraqi dialect, can anyone tell me how it's written in Arabic? Thanks
