Photographer Mike Olbinski captured this INCREDIBLE video of the massive haboob that struck Phoenix, Arizona on July 5, 2011. Filmed from a parking garage on 7th Street and McDowell (a vantage point Mike typically uses for sunset photography), Mike was eventually completely engulfed in the massive dust cloud, saying the sky became completely dark--like midnight--in a matter of seconds!
