Wendy, get out of the pool

YT: Giant Phoenix Dust Storm. I have lived in Phoenix since the 70's and have never seen anything this amazing. This is uncut/unedited video using a new camera for the 1st time. The video is taken from the base of South Mountain looking South towards the radio/TV towers. From the time we saw the dust cloud rising behind the mountain to a complete black-out was less than 4 minutes! My wife was swimming right up until the storm was at our home, despite my earlier pleas for her to get out sooner. Hope you enjoy the video, everyone was safe and enjoyed the storm, no major damage, just a lot of cleanup tomorrow.

What a lovely day!

You're gonna need a bigger Swiffer.

They look worse than they feel.

I moved to southern Arizona last year - still have yet to experience one these - but I surely will in the next two months. These dust storms are actually called "haboobs" and are prominent during the monsoon season which is typically June-August throughout Arizona & New Mexico. Which is quite interesting because those are the hottest months and although somewhat dangerous (floods/lightning) the monsoons begin a cooling down process (and immediate relief) which correlates with another 6 months of really nice weather.

New camera.... looks like shit... auto focuses like shit... "Just give me that $100 one at the end mr target employee"
