Driving Through Arizona Dust Storm (Haboob)- July 21, 2012

- Right around minute 9:00 in the video is where it approaches near zero visibility. Other times while in the storm were difficult to see as well.
I was driving on the freeway when a nice dust storm appears in the East Valley (Mesa/Gilbert), Arizona. I attempted to beat the dust storm (Haboob) home but didn't quite make it. There were points while driving where I had near zero visibility, as can be seen toward the end of the video. The winds in this storm appeared to have higher speeds than the last large storm over a year ago on July 5, 2011 (which I also happened to drive through and record).
The video is long. I basically kept the camera rolling as I approached and then drove through the storm. It is interesting to see the dramatic change in the environment from the semi-clear day to that within the dusty storm.
After the dust storm rolled through we then got drenched (for Arizona) with rain. A nice way to make the thick coat of dirt/sand stick and solidify to anything it just dusted.
Enjoy.
"I can't see!"
*Continues driving*
Lol
ya the people we saw in this video were not the brightest
I’ve done same thing once lol
Well that's the best thing to do to avoid getting rear ended you pendejo
lmao
Just looking at it makes me want to sneeze.
Try being in it.. It sucks
Imagine this, but with snow and covering most of the state. That's Montana in mid January.
***** Try being in one while outside with no shelter..
Amazing
i have been in one of these it was the worst and yes u will sneeze BUT TRY NOT TOO 😮😮😮
8:40 OMG THAT POOR GUY ON THE RIGHT
@lama tv DUST STORM
Dont even worry about him, he was literally *walking* around so the dust might have got in his eyes, but not that serious i guess
@@yumichan9985 yea he doesn't seem bothered
@@yumichan9985 Looking how bad that storm was, this dude probably got valley fever. I highly doubt this dude walked away with only dirt in his eyes.
Can you say coccidioidomycosis 5 times fast??

Yeah, my windshield got so pitted from these storms that it was like frosted glass. Had to explain that to the insurance company for a replacement .

I'm over here screaming at the sight of how big it looks and how much shit it about to get into!!
7:42 so we just all gonna ignore the fact the red car Toyota crashed in to the Silverado 🤔
Lol
How i didnt see shit?
Omg I heard that! Luckily I checked the comments.
It didn't hit it. I heard a crash after the skid but the Silverado was making a right while the Toyota was making a left into the other side of the street from the Silverado.
Jose.xo_ox can you pick me up on your shoulder and give me a crane wedgie
Did he roll down his window?! In a dust storm! Really?!

+bergwax i bet you played the mw2 mission when you have to save nikolia from the helicopter in the dust storm
He did that so we can see how windy it is and how bad it is

Lol I'd hate to be ppl with a pool
lol
Tyler Bradley I guess the 6 yr old me was not happy
Tyler Bradley lol I said the same thing but actually it really doesn't ruin the pool I live in Tempe right next to Phoenix and Mesa and I have a pool in my backyard and we had our first official haboob on June 29 a little over a month ago it lasted for about 25 mins and I came home from work and my pool was actually as good as new now heavy rains on the other hand are a pain in the ass
we just run our pool cleaner everyday. not that hard
Gamin' Squirtle I was sitting inside during that dust storm and the filter for our pool was HORRIBLE after. As I’m writing this right now, there is a dust storm going on...
For all who want to know how this happens!
Hot air rises in the gulf and then it collapses and creates these wind(Haboob is the dust part)and as the winds go they pick up dust.
Wow
Big brain fax
Wow that is so cool! Wouldn’t drive thru it but cool to see from afar! That can’t be good for your car, the paint, engine, air filter, your lungs, etc.....
Reminds me of the time I played desert storm. Also you hear a car accident on 7:43
That looks unreal. Just amazed at how much dust can be blown
It's an awesome experience!
6:07 it turned like night time SO quick. I live in Arizona so I see these all the tome
FireFox77 same I live in AZ too
No, that's just because of the dust storm gets more dense and becomes darker.
@@thomasraffensberger5900 Well, duh.
@@joshblack269 I was just clarifying what happened chill.
I used to in Tucson
I can feel the smell of the dust and cool wind in my mind 😍😍
6:10 guy has his window down
Driving through a dust storm, with zero visibility, while holding a cell phone, and making a video. Makes sense.
he used a go pro
most sane people do not drive in a dust storm
@@DungDuong-vk2ub you can see his iphone in the rearview mirror in the very begging. He was holding his stupid phone while driving
This video was incredible. Thankyou for sharing! Glad you made it through safely! I never imagined the winds inside this kind of storm were so brutal.
Hey, I went through that. I remember that. Wow! Didn't know someone filmed it. I'm out there in traffic somewhere. It was amazing and beautiful to watch.
Must have been quite an experience
That was my commute every day, used to live on Riggs and Ellsworth, I miss it so much 👍 thanks for sharing this video 👍👍
The perks of living in the desert. What a great place
cant even begin to imagine cleaning your house after this lol
It's a nightmare. Me and my whole family had to spend hours cleaning after this happened
Screw the house imagine our cars
+Haazardz Right? Well my house is usually fine.. Except for the back and front yard.
+Haileigh Wilborn yeah a lil water will do lol
Rains usually come after and wash it all off natually.
people with brains do not drive in a dust storm they just pull over for a drink and wait the 15 mins til its over no big deal.
He had work stupid
@@daishamaxwell461 you can’t take a joke lol
Ik im in 2020 lmao but it looks like a massive forest fire
Lol I was just thinking that
Ya fr
It looks like a hurricane woth no rain ;-;
2020 that's a great Idea just at the end of the fires just one massive ass fire I like dat
Little did they know.....
The great depression starts again
With another dust bowl
Thanos snapped so thats why its like dat
I remember that ! We are Phoenicians here and that haboob was a scary one when you've never been or seen one in your life. Still love my Phoenix, AZ) Peace

When your vacuum overflows and then explodes
Yeap, I was there, remember it well, tried to get back to my apartment before it got to me, didn't make it lol, that sand mixed with wind is no joke.
Please drive safely. The guys at 7:40 had problems driving in the storm. Careful with that camera when you're driving. Might be best to just put it away and pay attention to the road. Not to be a jerk, just don't wanna see another wreck.
At 8:42 was somebody out in THAT walking their dog? I live in Toronto, so we just do not get this. Pretty cool and eerie at the same time watching this from my desktop but if I was in the car with you, I'd be FREAKING out. One question, these dust storms, how long do they last. Hours. Days
They look a LOT worse than they actually are. The visibility inside of one is actually pretty good. The ONLY thing to hate about them is that other weather occurrences involve water, this is literally just dirt. Pure dirt. EVERYTHING gets dirty. You do not want to have just taken a shower only to realize that you'll have to go out in this weather. xD
I'm from Toronto too and this is freaking me out just watching it! How do these storms form is what I can't figure out?
We have a lot of loose dirt and when the wind picks up... this happens, it's the same as with the sand storms over in Africa.
Eunice Dominguez Chacon Oh okay, 1 question what would happen if an airplane is about to land but there`s a dust storm like this?
Peter Pulciani They always have weather and winds on radar and can always avoid it
You handled that PERFECTLY. This is also how you drive in blizzard conditions. You went super slow but didn’t stop. So you don’t plow into the person in front of you, while also not getting rear-ended. Good work
He starts driving threw it at around the 5 minute mark.
06:06 oh my sky is red looks like a End of the world. I'm drive in moment when dust storm started
Check out the one on July 5, 2011 its about dusk when it hits and I am just entering the freeway and had only been in AZ for 2 months.
Nepažįstamas Žmogus looks like the apocalypse lol
Ciuciko Pimpaliukas did you mean 6:06

I'm 15 and in the ADOT handbook it specifically states that you should stop your car on the side of the road
+Pzkw V That's what I HAD to do while on the 10 Freeway on the way to Tucson. It was pitch black...not like this video at all. ALL cars had to pull over because the dust storm was so violent and dirt/dust covered all the windows. It was surreal...and scary!!
+Pzkw V You're correct buddy. People continue to drive regardless though because it is still visible when it comes by at times. It does indeed say to pull over in the handbook. There is a reason its in the handbook and it is because it can get extremely dangerous. But people tend to do it only when its zero visibility like it happens towards the end of the video. It would always be a wise choice to pull over. But, if you do continue driving, be cautious and take extra precautions like the driver still took in this video. Hope you drive safe when u get ur license :)
yes nonsense Thank you. I have my permit right now.
.
+Pzkw V Yes the handbook says that you should do that, but there's no law on the books that says you have to...I have been on the I-10 down by Picacho Peak and the visibility was even worse than shown in this video witnessed an 18 wheeler plow into cars that had pulled off to the side of the road...
I out ran one once . I just left the VA Hospital in Phoenix heading back to Buckeye. I looked in my rearview mirror and seen it coming. What a trip. As soon as I pulled up to my driveway and got into the house it hit. That was close. Good video. Thanks.
Imagine if this was caused by someone off of my 600 lb life farting
AC Delco Sim Series LMAO nice one 😂
Once again sorry couldn't hold it in let me tell you IT WAS NOT SILENT

hi
Great footage!!! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you very much for this perfect video
I still wish me and my family would move there and my school because my grandparents are there and I love them
awww so sweet!
@@candysmith8724 this made my brain melt.
You definitely should switch schools in any case...
I never want to go back their I live right next to a coyote den and there was a heatwave every other day
I really want to move here. It seems so calm & warm & welcoming.
its everything good
I live here it just gets sooo hot if your in the sun for too long
From the months May - early November, it gets really, really, really hot. The rest of the months are amazing weather. Not a bad place to live though. Like everyone, you get acclimated.
I love Arizona! Not to cold winters! The only problem is that if you are going to move here it is hard to get used to the heat! But it is amazing here!
Entranced.Occult.Matrix it's not worth coming here
That's awesome! Makes everything red and orange and then the street lights came cuz it got darker. My sister lived in Las Vegas so I don't know if she ever witnessed one or not.
I live in Phoenix, never seen one this bad, I’m never out during them who’s outside during the summer anyways. but I usually can still see a quarter of a mile or so when we do get them. but we don’t get very heavy storms in general Phoenix has a tendency to split storms in two :( very weird seeing streets I recognize on UA-cam though!
I live in a Rez and they get bad lol
@9:00 Can't see a thing, still stays in the middle of the road. Genius.
7:45 does he go back to the dust storm?🤦♀️
Thank you for sharing, i was in that very huboob! I was headed down the 202 west and it enfulfed my car. So scary, couldn't see a thing for about 30-60 or so long seconds
I think I remember this one. This video was right near where I lived. It was the darkest I have ever seen it!
You all have never lived in Arizona have you? It's a dust storm, not the end of the world.
Never had a problem with them, bring a jacket so you don't get sanded to death and if it gets bad, my grandpa who is a scout leader in Mesa taught us to hunch down into a ball off the sidewalk so you don't get hit by other walkers or bikers, and if (ha IF) there's a wall nearby like most walgreens, gas stations, some businesses duck down.
Oliver Carpenter
Calm down there, drama queen.
Oliver Carpenter yes, every person who has ever watched this lives in Arizona.
Oliver Carpenter I live in Edmonton Canada do you really think we get dust storms. The worst we get is a snow storm but it’s not really that bad
... and that's why we watch sand storms videos here in UA-cam.
PEOPLE....STOP till all clear FFS ...SAFETY is first .....duhhhhhhhhhhh.............but then AGAIN im Scottish LOL.
+cerrie lang haha yeaaaa well these can last up to 2 hours soooooo screw waiting lol we got no time for that lol XD aww the USA, land of fucked up weather haha
Yeah, its a common warning but we never do. I mean, if you live in Arizona, you're used to these...
that is what most sane people do in a dust storm.
Wow. I'm in VA and always wanted to know what these were like. So crazy yet amazing at the same time.
Lubbock Texas used to be like this...I don't miss those days at all

This was one of the first haboobs I saw. I was standing in my backyard watching it and I had no idea what was going on. it's like 50 miles tall, really makes you feel like an ant
Wow! Amazing video!
I would imagine driving through one of these is not good for your car??
The737Man just close all the ways air can get in car and wait it out. your mostly safe
I live in Arizona and that's actually pretty normal for us. that storm isn't as bad as what we've gotten before, we typically get those kind of storms 5 times or more every year, but trust me you don't want to be outside when that happens, it feels like you're about to fly away and you get a bunch of dust in your eyes, and things flying around everywhere. its not that scary to us just pretty much normal.
I live in AZ and this dude is trippin. We hardly ever get them this clearly defined.
My legs are shivering!!
That was a good one. I remember being stuck outside for a good part of it.
Just washed the car...
Still drives through the storm....
TheOdd1sOut (James) lives in Arizona and he made a video about Arizona. He mentioned (I think he did) about the dust storm.
Oh man I can't wait to see this
I complain about El Paso’s dust storms , and then this pops in my recommended lol, crazy!!
DARUDE - SANDSTORM
The best advice i have if you're ever caught in this situation is to pull over on to the shoulder and turn your lights off so someone doesn't think you're on the road. It kind of reminds me of The Undertaker when he threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer's table back in 1998.
wow that was amazing thank you
Oh what a day. WHAT A LOVELY DAY!
I left Arizona 20 years ago and I haven't looked back.
i live to say the same someday 😔

I remember this! We were at Big Surf and saw this coming from one of the water slides, this thing was massive lol
My first time outside on a dust storm was when i was riding my bike.
Rocks hurt. Plus that was when i was 8 i am now 12.
You could have just exited & waited till it passed
+Jay-R Yren true. instead I slowed, turned on lights, hazards and proceeded with caution.
Not in Arizona😂 lasts literally hours
+bergwax i feel so bad for you i drove through one of these when i was 11 and we didnt even know what the hell it was! we thought it was just some forest fire!
+BriBeauty XoXo I've lived in Arizona 62 years and NEVER seen a dust storm last "literally hours"...
+Sam Rowland Thats interesting because I sure have.
We have a relative in BuckEye Az that have talked about these & I really DIDN'T believe them until watching this, WOW
This would be breathtaking
When your sitting outside eating food...
This makes my eyes feel like there’s something inside it XD
I think UA-cam is trying to tell us something because all I been getting is storm videos 👀
Yeah luckily Tucson, get's like none of that. We were starting to, but luckily we've gotten good rain finally this year lol. Mt Lemmon is green for once!
Monsoon/haboob season is slowly approaching us my fellow Phoenicians. Are we ready???????????? Ya, me neither. That's why I always get my unlimited car washes during this season to have a clean car on my way to work to only drive home and get the car dirty again.....lol Gotta love AZ
Cant wait to go there
Iballistic Slime When will you be here? Visit or move? :)
***** When do you move here and from where? :)
So cool. I love NC. I worked there before. People were amazing there. Well, June is a great time to be here. You will love Phoenix. :)

New track by darude
I've never seen one of those before...Wow!
I have when I lived in Tucson Arizona for a year in 2011 we had these at least once a week
Dang I was honestly scared of dust storms but seeing that guy dive through one makes it less scarier doesn't look to bad
