This is most excellent coverage, I took pics but not video, and you're right about 'last years' dust storm being darker.....it was dark, with some red clay color in it, went from day to night in 1 minute's time. you got great vid of the "rolling in" and how fast it is, but it's so massive it takes forever to get there....punt humans cannot perceive the hugeness from the ground very well. keep shooting az weather! :)

"puny" humans, that is.

I'm glad you didn't use the word Haboob. So tired of that word.
