Tuesday night we attempted to let the dogs sleep outside, but of course Lima started barking at nothing, so Anthony went to go let them in. When he came back he told me that the sky was brown and it looked like a dust storm was coming. We didn't think anything of it when we heard some thunder shortly after that. Yesterday morning as we drove to work, we noticed all the cars on the freeway that looked like someone had dumped a bucket of dirt on their car and we wondered what in the heck happened the night before.
It didn't take long for us to find out that a 50 mile wide and 1 mile high Haboob took over the valley the night before. My co-workers were telling me that it looked like something out of a movie...one minute it was light out and the next it was pitch black with zero visibility.
I was bummed we missed the excitement, but after hearing about the cleanup, I'm not too sad that we are missing out on that!
