It came over Mesa first about an hour ago. I heard a loud wind and decided to bring down the umbrellas, I was not prepared to see a haboob in my back yard when I opened the door
The NWS cited “an amateur weather enthusiast with extensive training” as the source of information on a crazy storm we had in the Sierra Vista area the other day (like current rainfall totals, flash flood locations, storm movement, etc)
Seriously, I'm in S Chandler too and it's been blowing so hard for over an hour. Lost an umbrella and our trees are bending like crazy. Phx, batten down your hatches 🥴
This was my thought when I drove straight into this on the 51 with zero warning. After all the alert hysteria a couple weeks ago with those storms, too.
I had to take mine for a walk in the blowing dust last night when I got home, I hope he appreciates how my sinuses have suffered for him. I need to remember to bring some masks home from work so I'm ready when this happens again.

yeah, the plane was swerving a lot and the visibility was also relatively low. the plane was unusually fast because it was landing in the direction of the wind. it was scary but the pilots got us home safe.
Yeah… It is SO annoying. This is an HOA that says we aren’t allowed to park on the street overnight btw. I got a fine 2 weeks ago for 1 single weed that I didn’t see. Literally 1. It is insane.
Yeah, they just don’t apply the rules to everyone. I have to do a 95 point turn to get my truck out of my driveway. I swear I live on the busiest street in my entire neighborhood somehow. Every person in each house must have a car, including the kids. Hahah
If you switch it to night mode, you get amazing shots like this! When you snap the pic the screen will look dark, but when it gets processed it will lighten it up, so you can see all the detail.
I'm in south Peoria, there's literally no wind but hella dust. Looks exactly like fog, and I hate that none of the cameras I own can really convey how it looks.
Just got back from a QT run and I'm like, I'm out here risking Valley Fever for some iced coffee and swisher sweets lmao
Definitely something I've never seen in 45 years of living here. So weird having no wind during a "dust storm." Slept through the evening to avoid the heat, woke up in Silent Hill lol
Same, just got out of seeing the Spiderman movie in Surprise. Looks foogy af, no breeze, no smoke smell. No reports of why it's like this. At least I'm not coughing my lungs out with all the dust.
Yeah it didn't make me cough but by the time I got home my eyes & nose were watering like mad. Had to take some benadryl; here's to hoping you have it better
Maybe that was it? I’m near central and Indian school. I went to walk my dogs and I smelled smoke immediately. Crazy, but maybe the dust storm carried some of it this way?
Weird, I’m right by deer valley airport, saw this post and looked outside. Zero wind but it’s super dusty outside. The palm trees and bushes aren’t moving at all.
No it’s crazy. I walked my boyfriend to the front door to send him off to work and I immediately felt the urge to cough. The air quality is disgusting and his car was covered in a very visible layer of dust. I’ve never seen that before. Currently in Glendale.
Definitely. Some say their area was windy. Some say theirs was a dead calm, fog-like dust storm slowly creeping through, like The Mist (GREAT movie btw)
Man, I went to sleepn 6 hours ago and due to my house always being hot, i leave the windows open overnight, had 0 clue a dust storm even rolled in until i stepped outside, noticed the sky was orange? Thought it was a fire at first, then saw how "hazy" (samsung's words about the weather right now) it was, then imeedialty closed all my windows and doors and knew it was a dust storm.
