Crazy view from south of Phoenix last night as a massive spring dust storm rolled through town. It cleared just for a bit to give me this amazing view looking upwards and some sick cloud structure. Link to timelapse is below!

Amazing photo! The time lapses were awesome too. What is that like to be in that, is it hard to breathe? Does that dust get into your house and inside the car?
