A massive dust storm surged through parts of Arizona, creating a striking wall of dark dust in Pinal County.
The thick wall of dark dust in Pinal County was carried by thunderstorm winds - a phenomenon known as a haboob, according to the National Weather Service, News.Az reports, citing BBC.
The term haboob comes from Arabic and refers to a "strong wind" or "gale". In the United States they are most common in the southwest.
