Trying to not to snigger... But... Serious question, what is a haboob?

It's the romanization of the Arabic word for dust storms brought by weather fronts!

I’m in Lubbock for the first time in years and I think this is what the dust bowl looked like.

My wife works at the Austin airport. One of her coworkers sends a "look at the dust storm" message to the group text thread. My wife responds with a picture of one from her days working at the Phoenix airport with a message along the lines of "that's cute."

Matt! If you need an anecdote for a future post, today's wind was strong enough to blow mortared bricks off the second story of our not-quite-finished house
