Saw on the news you PHX people got your first Haboob yesterday.  :eek




Haboob  A haboob is a violent dust or sandstorm occurring on the southwest deserts of Arizona. It depicts the leading edge, or gust front, of an approaching storm, and wind speeds can exceed 60 mph!

The first time I saw one of those, in the big rig, I freak out, and mashed on the gas to take cover up a overpass, I didn't know if it was going to carry me away back to Kansas. Turned out to be a little dust thats all.

Haboobs are a love, hate for me. I enjoy them cause they're pretty cool and most of the time they bring the rain. But the morning after my pool is a mud pit. :banghead Spent most of the morning cleaning it up. Oh well. :good

It's 5 o'clock somewhere!!
