Haboob


What? Has the Huppdates turned to smut? No, no, worry not, its merely a term for a dust storm. Check out Phoenix's definition: "Walls of dirt and debris, usually miles wide and thousands of feet high, are pushed across dry desert terrain by high winds, causing dust to engulf highways. Although usually brief, dust storms must be taken seriously because of blinding conditions on highways." Granted these pictures are a little old (few weekends ago) they are still an interesting Hupp experience. Note the sky in the picture to the left. One moment they were crystal clear blue, next everything is brown and dusty. Just another day in the desert.
