Deuteronomy 28:24

The LORD shall make the rain of thy land powder and dust: from heaven shall it come down upon thee, until thou be destroyed.

Revelation 16:10

And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain,

21 December 2012???

[NBAGOATS]

Dust storms aren't that bad. Its just a pain for visibility. But tie up your asshole to keep the rapist out and you're fine.

[llacey52]

It is Mother Nature’s spa treatment… you walk out into it facing it and the sand does the derma-abrasion treatment. Then the rain behind it comes through you get the mud pack facial followed by the hot rain washing it all off, closely followed by the hot dry air finishing the treatments. And some women pay boo-koo buck for a day at the spa when AZ has it for free.

[023achilles]

@llacey52 Plus +10 for use of 'boo-koo' :)

[peruano86]

@023achilles

its BEAUCOUP

[023achilles]

@peruano86 No, thats BOW-koo. Boo koo is the slang.

[MrEpicookie]

@llacey52 the wind also blows at 70+ mph, blows you over and can cause serious bodily injury, can cause huge damage to property. the rain, in enough quantity, can also cause flash flooding. but ya other than that it is natures version of a day at the spa. without the cucombers on your eyes.

what? we were all thinking it i just said it.

[acemace3618]

Another dust storm just hit Phoenix right now, I live in Scottsdale and there is absolutely no visibility, and on top of that it is raining as hard as s***!

[boricua6483]

@acemace3618 im in the deer valley area and we are getting hit hard right now. I've never seen one this big.

[silicon212]

@acemace3618 Yeah, had to pull off Alma School south of McDowell, about 30 feet, to keep from getting hit by anything else on Alma School Rd. Couldn't see my own cars' hood ornament.  Wild.

[KCKclub97]

@acemace3618 I'm also around Scottsdale and i walked outside and was eating dust

[Jesster4u]

Yes Ian that shits crazy

[IANDUDEABBLE81]

another one just hit phoenix. Even bigger!!!!!!

[merlinthegray]

@IANDUDEABBLE81 And that's what brought me here. Thumbs up!

[MagicBlubber]

Damn nature you scary!

[Livvybabee28]

2009 dust storm it was either 2009 or 10 was really bad i woke up 2 the window open and woke every1 up cause the room i couldnt breath well and the floor was really dust and the sky was red i thought it was 2009 or 10 really was 2012 altho the worlds not gonna end

[cbemerine]

@Livvybabee28 Just went through pages of posts, someone posted about one in August of 2009. Seems like dust storms are common, happen every year, however when they get big enough to be called a haboob, that normally only happens once or twice every one to two years. Here its July 2011 and we have had two haboobs in July so far....that is normal if NO MORE HAPPEN. However if there are more this summer, that would be higher than NORMAL even for Phoenix, except back in the Dust Bowl.

[lifethroughmylens1]

Wow nice video crazy weather.

[NATE52097]

I remember this we were on a Southwest flight heading back to Phoenix and we got immediate landing due to the ''WEATHER'' in the area so we went from 7,000-4,000 in like a minute then we hit the storm and the plane dropped a few feet turning everyone one board in to little girls for a half a second

[TheSasha555]

@NATE52097

Over 400,00 people died. So sad.

[glitterlover429]

HELL YEAH!!! az for the win!

[XxSkaterConxX]

Sandy Baals.. :D

[IsiTheGooseGirl17]

When the camera pans to the right, it looks like a large polar bear paw, except it's pale orange.

[MRsGaRCiiA]

[cochranexyz]

I hated living in a place that had dust storms. You couldn't leave your window open at night. Sucked.

[CaraAsoleada]

Hooooooooo shit....o.O

I remember a haboob occurring here once...fucking crazy...

[MegaLeviboy]

OH NOES! A SANDSTORMS!

[JPDK159]

[KittyRyu]

I actually miss these storms so much.

[MoeFe]

THATS PHOENIX BABY!

[namchild]

[Ericules555]

[AlboTerraThug]

this was a fun day me and my freinds refused to stay inside

[cusanusnicolas]

SSDD Mars.

[abumpinthenight2]

Great potential for a horror movie scene....

[adamslurch71]

I remember this day I was out driving doing about 120 mph when it hit, and to tell you the truth the visibility of 30 is a lie, I couldn't even see the wipers on the windshield.

[jonathan1stewart]

@adamslurch71 120? I hope you slowed down when you entered the dust cloud. I've lost a few windshields in AZ and NM driving through those clouds.

[adamslurch71]

@jonathan1stewart nope I was on the GM proving grounds in Mesa at the time. I was on a track by myself and could still see the guardrail so I was good.

[DisneyGuy1992]

zeus's girlfriend broke up with him and he got a little bit mad xD

[FlyJetBlueAirways]

That's towards Maricopa right?

[WhatTela]

whats that light?

[shadowhellhound]

@WhatTela  THE FLASHING LIGHT IS HAPPENING BECAUSE OF THE HIGH WINDS THAT ARE IN FRONT OF THE STORM, CAUSE THE CAM TO HAVE A HARD TIME FOCUSING

[Audiofreund2]

Apokalypse 

[Smiles9907]

I'm glad where I live doesn't get sandstorms.

[TheDistraughthouse]

We havent had a good dust storm in ages it seems!

[adamslurch71]

@TheDistraughthouse Last year there was a massive one. August of 2009 I was driving when that one hit, I almost got nailed by a semi that thought he could make it through the storm.

[Prups]

this is why i moved from phoenix...dry, dusty, hot and retarded people.

[Verdoccam]

Yep, no rain here, just dust storms. Hooray valley fever!

[doogrisa]

its not a dust storm. its just a bunch of hippies smoking weed.

[ARZCARDINALS]

@doogrisa ROFL!!!!!!! xD

[doogrisa]

@ARZCARDINALS :)

[ARZCARDINALS]

[doogrisa]

[CalebTheGuitarist]

[joeAKAmarykate]

[WhatMakesUsAmericans]

[SquirrelStoned]

[luvduv2009]

[tigerslilly29]

@luvduv2009 For some reason I moved to Mass. from Phx in 2000. It's the same here, always crappy rain and clouds and cold. I miss the Phx dust storms, and nothing's more beautiful than desert rain and heat lightning! <3

[cranopal]

@ChristinaWolfle

It's like looking through those yellow sun glasses until you're actually inside the cloud, then it's just dirty, but if you live here, it's also cooler and that's worth any price.

[Kingkong922]

The same thing happened in Sydney, Wollongong, Adelaide and Brisbane these days.

[ozzlanda]

[tinytott]

[MichaelJacksonFan000]

[314noceu]

Dayum nature, you dusty!

[pactocomogoogle]

[markjason2]

[jeffnerohardy24]

[blacknailgirl6]

urgh i hate dust storms!! our pools always really dirty after : p

[okami221]

these rarely happen in phoenix well now

[mrAZcardinal]

Arizona. Gawsh it's the best state in the USA.

[rexboogie]

i lived there. no it is not

[mrAZcardinal]

I lived there too. and yes it is.

[alexdaftpunk91]

this big dust is caused by what? i dont understand

[86mks]

It is cause by strong wind produced by a thunderstorm blowing across the desert.

[momojabada]

Dust + wind ^^

[alexdaftpunk91]

Looks very scary anyways O.o

[hotdoggy854]

they are formed when thunderstorms produce an outflow boundary in the desert. Arizona monsoon thunderstorms can get up to 40,000 feet many times. When they get close to the valley, they generally collapse and produce gusty winds sometimes in excess of 50 mph. These dust storms called "Haboobs" is the result.

[carbe1dez1nutz]

wind... you know the shit that blows around

[LOKOREX1]

phoenix!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!al­l day man

[MichaelMashburn]

These helicopters were NOT in the accident. That was channel 15 and 3. This is channel 12 (KPNX). Get your facts straight.

[artsk8team]

lalalala

[comfeefort]

Lived in phoenix during the 80's. I am surprised you still have dust storms with all the development. I lived in north phoenix near 7th st. and Bell rd. the only plaza was on the SW corner most everything was dirt lots, then came the car dealers. We had quite a few dust storms. I'll still take a Monsoon over one of those.

[meghansharehm]

We still get dust storms round monsoon season, but haboobs like these only happen once every 1-2 years anymore. I moved to Phx in 1992, and a remember quite a few of these. I kinda miss em... they were frightening, but awe inspiring. Funny, you can always tell a snowbird when you see em in the car next to you, AC pumping dust at their faces... hehe. And yeah, i'd much rather get some damn monsoon rain. WE NEED IT.... PUHLEASE RAIN!

[9sectionwhip]

That's the cam m8 :)

[hanh05]

ive driven on 1-10 to phoenix in one of those b4, u cant see shit in it, its insane

[AZnovelist]

I remember that one!

[michellehunter13]

this looked like a movie from somewhere oh ya the mist by stephan kiing

[smasher2441]

i saw that on the news that was so freakin crazy

[williestratton]

holy crap what is that stuff made up of? Is it like sand?

[curbsidehighrocks]

Sand, dirt, dust. Basically anything laying in the desert. They're so cool. Unless you're driving.

[bapyou]

This is a dust storm. There is no sand in it. Sand is only lifted off the ground about 6 feet at most. Only dust - the finest particles found on the desert floor - can be lifted to such heights as those that you see here in this video. Sand is defined by a specific size (0.06 - 2.0 mm). Clay particles are the finest size (less than 0.004 mm). Air-borne clay particles that remain suspended in the air are referred to as atmospheric dust. Some of this storm may also be silt (0.004 - 0.06 mm).

[tazertaze]

i reemember when i was in calfornia i was watching a show and they were talkin bout this and on the freeway fuking crazy ass shit man

[mykylc]

hahahahaha I remember when this hit. It looked like it was out of some kind of Steven King movie. I loved it.

[congospork1]

[DrakeDietrick]

Man I miss that...so cool

[LuciferonYT]

Ahh reminds me of the movie The Mist.. :-)

[jammin88]

[EAC2222]

Dust storms kick ass!!!! They are awesome!!!

[Lieutelant]

In July of 2007, I helped three friends move to Phoenix.

Two days after I got home, this happened.

Dammit, I should've stayed longer.

[ytpiano9]

Looks like a giant cotton candy.

[datboibolf]

It goes hard down in west texas as well.

Amazing shit.

[gabbylu]

I like going outside before it hits, everything is the craziest orange you've ever seen. Looks like you're in a vintage movie hehehe

[Babelsuicide]
