Amazing pics, really showing the power of nature!

looks amazing, now I want to Arizona, don't care about the storm

Good ones!

amazing shots :thumbsup

stunning shots

That dust storm was amazing. I have seen hundreds of them living here the past 20 years, but that one was on totally different level. It literally went from day to night in a few seconds.

How much mess does it leave afterwards?

Great pics but I think they are old :)

Awesome pictures indeed ! These made me think of the power of mother nature ...
and to ask myself, where are the boobs pictures ... sorry about that.

Thanks for not emailing me today.

How bad does a dust storm like that fuck up cars, building glass, air conditioning systems, etc?

.

That was interesting, thanks.

.

Amazing indeed :thumbsup

Sad and impressive at the same time.

Wow, just wow. Impressive shots

Great shots. :thumbsup

Amazing thanks for sharing

Those are amazing,mother nature sure can be a bitch

I feel cold just looking at that shot... :helpme

Nice pictures

Great Pictures!

Crazy, but the pictures don't match up. That dude in the bottom pic should be facing a cross street. Instead he's facing a driveway. You can tell by the curb formations and width of the driveway. The second shot is probably taken from farther back down the main road.

Fact: at the time I was visiting the Joplin area.

not terribly bad.. My pool gets the brunt end of it. It takes a day or so and 6-7 backwashes to get it back to what it was.

nice pics! would love to see more

Crazy stuff

Some really cool ones indeed.

fantastic photos that demonstrate the awesome power of nature.

Hate to be in Phoenix when that monster rolled over it!

:thumbsup , amazing and titillating photography here

Nature surge......what a pic.....all of them are wonderful....

Some pics are just great

I've seen them already before but indeed they are impressive. I like the most the one with pink water and the volcano eruption. :)

I hate when people call them "Haboobs". Haboob is a word of Arabic origin and last time I checked, Phoenix is not part of anywhere under Arabic influence. It's a dust storm people. When they say this on TV it drives me nuts. No I'm not a racist so get off it, ok? Dust storm... Big ass dust storm.. and yes, that one was nuts. I agree.. Day to night in about 3 minutes. I saw that one coming and said to my Dad... Oh shit.. gotta go home and take care of a few things before they blow away.

Cap'n... I'm givin her all she's got!!!!

Very cool thread.
