Pecos Hank | DRIVING INTO HABOOB & Spontaneous Combustion @PecosHank | Uploaded August 2013 | Updated October 2024, 1 week ago.
Complete black out while driving onto an intense dust storm. This storm was tornado warned early in it's life and generated many gustnadoes. Eventually the storm transitioned into an outflow beast kicking up a dust storm several kilometers high.

At 12:58pm, radar detected an invisible outflow boundary left over from the previous days storms near Lubbock Texas. These outflow boundaries are good candidates for thunderstorm development and by 1:40pm a storm fired up right on target. 15 minutes later a storm spotter reported a brief dusty tornado and a tornado warning was issued. From my location I couldn't confirm the tornado but did observe a little dust spin up. Often along the edge of a storm's gust front little eddies called gustnadoes whirl up dusty tubes. One should avoid mistaking these gustnadoes as tornadoes due to the "cried wolf effect" false warnings have on the public. The storm grew vigorously outflow dominant taking on a classic kabob appearance. A Haboob is a thick dust storm or sandstorm that blows in the desert of North Africa, Arabia and India. While driving into the dust storm, visibility was reduced to 20 meters.
