With fall though came a haboob. Yes, I said haboob.
haboob

It usuallylasts about three hours, is most common during the summer, andmay blow from any direction. A haboob may transport hugequantities of sand or dust, which move as a dense wall that canreach a height of 900 metres (about 3,000 feet). The termhaboob is taken from the Arabic word habb meaning wind.
