Phoenix Haboob (Dust Storm) 7/5/11

wow, that was amazingly eerie, unbelievable

Always right after the car is detailed!!

This thing was the best weather event I've been apart of. Scary as hell though seeing that come from a distance.

This was my first haboob EVER. Just moved here from Detroit in February and this scared the hell out of me! AT first when i saw it (I was in Chandler at the time), I was afraid that maybe it was smoke from the wildfires that eastern Arizona was having, I was about to grab all my belongings and haul ass west! LOL Yeah, cleanup of the backyard, pool area, etc took about two to three days.

incredible.. wish i could have seen that. i live on the westside and we never get those kinds of dust storms here. always the southeast valley

that looks sick!!! i wish i was there to witness this!!!!! =)

Filming the last moments of their lives lol awesome Liked!!

@shadowace421 I live in Phoenix, most people I know have grass in their backyards. A lot of the newer houses don't have as much because their yards are like 5 yards long, but most houses do have grass in their backyards, grass that needs mowing ;)

This has to be where the idea of the movie Independence day came into play..

That is the craziest thing I've ever seen!!!!!!! What causes that to happen?

Definition of Arizona: Extreme heat, very dry, huge dust storms; "A dirty HELL"

Wtf! I've been on serious vacation or what? I didn't know.... blushing

thanks for share

Lol, funny that whenever i go out of town, AZ weather makes CNN.

Haboob??? We don't have have those here in Arizona and the rest of the U.S.A!!!. We do have DUST STORMS and SAND STORMS. Here in AZ we also have valley fever... hope you don't get it for breathing in all that dust. Cheers! :D

7/5/2011 not 6/5/2011 and yeah, I had to drive in that thing. Talk about scary.

@etep31, @LiTeAsASNoW It's in my eye! rolf! And at 3 48 the color turns purple? Is that a filter? (looks GREAAT!) Because IF you have filters, U could/should have tried recording w/filter(s) to REALLY see what was above you?!! U also seem amazed...but some media says that happens every year? Whats the TRUTH? AND AFTER it passes was/is there so called DUST everywhere?

I did drive in it. Needless to say I had to change my air filter the next day!
