Lubbock Dust Storm Dustpocalypse 10/17/11

This is the way the world ends in Lubbock. Not with a bang, or a whimper, but with the dust.
"But ohh oh your city lies in dust, my friend / ohh oh your city lies in dust, my friend"

A haboob (Arabic:"هَبوب", "strong wind") is a type of intense duststorm carried on an atmospheric gravity current. Haboobs are regularly observed in arid regions throughout the world. They have been observed in the Sahara desert (typically Sudan, where they were named and described), as well as across the Arabian Peninsula, throughout Kuwait, and in the most arid regions of Iraq.
