This thing hit last night while we were flying Ghost Skies and when I went outside, I couldn't see 10 feet in front of me. Today, dust blankets the ground and the air still taste like dirt. This is one of the biggest Haboob's we have had. It was 8000ft high and 100 miles across at its biggest point.

WoW!!! 
I was in a couple of dust/sand storms when I did some work in Las Cruces New mexico and it sucked. Felt like I was inside a sandblasting machine. That was just crazy to see. So much for satalite tv in something like that huh.

Sometimes it is absolutely necessary to kill a fly with a sledgehammer.
