While listening to a news story on this yesterday (with a rep from NASA), the first flight ceiling mentioned was 10 feet (3 meters). I read elsewhere that the flight plans were for up to 16 feet (5 meters).

Those dust devils are more like dust bunnies due to the extremely low atmospheric pressure. I might enjoy standing inside one of those tornado wannabe's.
