Are there desert/sand versions of Snowsight & Obscuring Snow?

[eyebreaker7]

Snowsight
(Frostburn)
Transmutation
Level: Druid 1, Ranger 1, Consecrated Harrier 1, Winter (Fr) 1,
Components: V, S, DF,
Casting Time: 1 standard action
Range: Touch
Target: Creature touched
Duration: 1 hour/level
Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: Yes (harmless)
The subject gains the ability to see to the normal limits of its vision even in whiteout conditions, and ignores all penalties due to snow glare and snow blindness.
Snowsight is no better than normal vision.
During daylight, this usually means the subject can see to the horizon; at night, vision is restricted to ambient light or darkvision as appropriate for the subject creature.
Snowsight does not grant creatures the ability to see in darkness.

Obscuring Snow
(Frostburn)
Conjuration (Creation) [Air, Cold]
Level: Cleric 2, Druid 2, Sorcerer 2, Wizard 2,
Components: V, S,
Casting Time: 1 standard action
Range: 30 ft.
Effect: Cloud spreads in 30-ft.-radius from you, 30 ft. high
Duration: 1 hour/level
Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: No
A swirling snow vapor arises around you, and follows you from that point on.
The snow obscures all sight, including darkvision, beyond 5 feet.
A creature 5 feet away has concealment (attacks have a 20% miss chance).
Creatures farther away have total concealment (50% miss chance, and the attacker cannot use sight to locate the target).
A strong wind (21+ mph) disperses the snow in 4 rounds.
A very strong wind (31+ mph) disperses the snow in 1 round.
A fireball, flame strike, or similar spell burns away the snow in the explosive or fiery spell's area.
A wall of fire burns away the snow in the area into which it deals damage.
This spell does not function underwater.
Creatures with snowsight are immune to the effects of this spell.

I mean, Haboob and Wall of Sand are vaguely similar to Obscuring Snow, but not that close. Dust Storm (Dragon 331) also fits in this category.

I can't think of any sand-related analogue for Snowsight.

I THOUGHT I knew one:

Haboob. Sandstorm equivalent to Obscuring Snow.

Haboob
(Sandstorm)
Level Conjuration (Creation) [Air, Earth]
Level: Cleric 3, Druid 3, Ranger 3, Sorcerer 3, Wizard 3, Sand 3,
Components: V, S, M,
Casting Time: 1 standard action
Range: Medium (100 ft. + 10 ft. level)
Effect: Abrasive dust spreads in 20-ft. radius, 20 ft. high
Duration: 1 min./level
Saving Throw: None or Reflex half; see text
Spell Resistance: No

A thick haze of swirling dust and sand swirls out from the point you designate.
The effect obscures all sight, including darkvision, beyond 5 feet.
A creature within 5 feet has concealment.
Creatures farther away have total concealment.
Unprotected, nonmagical flames are automatically extinguished, and there is a 50% chance that protected flames will be snuffed.
In addition to obscuring sight, the swirling dust abrades any creature within it or attempting to move through it.
Any creature passing through the haze takes 1d4 points of damage per two caster levels (maximum 5d4), with no save allowed.
If you conjure haboob so that it appears where creatures are located, each creature takes damage as if passing through the haze.
Such creatures take half damage with a successful Reflex save, but if these creatures do not leave the affected area at their next opportunity, they take full damage from the abrading sands (no save) as if they had voluntarily entered the area.
Any creature that remains within the affected area for more than 1 round likewise takes damage automatically (no save).
A moderate wind (11+ mph) disperses the dust in 8 rounds; a strong wind (21+ mph) disperses it in 4 rounds.
This spell does not function underwater.
Material Component: A pinch of ash, dust, or sand.

Not quite the same, but close enough! Does not track you, but does do damage, so different utility.

EDIT: Ok Thurbane, thats not fair! For once I thought I knew something, you cant just edit your post and ninja me! How am I going to get my worth in internet points now? :p

I don't see why a DM wouldn't allow you to simply modify the spells to have desert versions: Sandsight and Obscuring Sand.

However, it's important to note that even the most intense natural duststorms (see Sandstorm, page 15) - which are so fierce they cause damage - never cause as much visual impairment as Obscuring Snow or natural whiteouts (see Frostburn, page 13). Haboob, which others have mentioned, also deals damage when creating the effect capable of blocking vision.
