Major Dust Storm in Arizona

Otherwise known as a "Haboob", a massive dust storm moved through Phoenix, AZ Tuesday evening as thunderstorms produced gusty winds that helped kick up the dust.  While dust storms are common in Arizona, this particular one reached as wide as 60 miles and reached heights of 10,000ft.  This is raw video from ABC15.com.  The dust caused thousands of power outages and will probably take several weeks to clean up.
