Default Weird AZ weather...AGAIN!!

All the crappy weather we had last night...tonight...this is what greeted Lynn and I on the drive home (sorry...crappy cell phone pic...while driving no less!)

A wonderful AZ haboob!




We made it home with about 20 seconds to spare...Now we have ZERO visibility

Yes it is...they said it was the biggest one they'd seen in 20 years!

A haboob is a dust storm (and is your word of the day )

[ QUOTE ]
ha·boob /həˈbub/
–noun a thick dust storm or sandstorm that blows in the deserts of North Africa and Arabia or on the plains of India....and sometimes in AZ...LOL


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[Origin: 1895–1900; < Ar habūb a strong wind]

Wishing I was one of them! Going to be raining here tonight and most of tomorrow.

Therefore, I won't have any Lowes Cruise pics tonight or any show pics for Saturday.
