sand Storm in San Diego (& I guess most of So Cal).

[Bobalos]

this morning my sinuses were going NUTS.  I could not figure it out until our resident dust guy showed us the data he is collecting.  PM levels are CRAZY right now.

I know you Zonies are used to this haBO.OB nonsense, but not us........

Had the biggest hail I've ever seen.  In Julian.  Left a super dusty mess so i asssume the dust mixed with moisture in the armposhpere to create that hail?

Trucks were 10x filthier AFTER the rain and hail.

Already hosed my truck off but here's my trash cans.  They were clean before the storm...

Woke up to dust all over our living room.  Had windows cracked overnight.  Wife had the day off and spent most of it cleaning up the dust.

That's a Haboob you uneducated necks.........it's the outflow from the thunderstorms.... pilots love to fly thru them...it's fun. Nothing in Norco,  oh wait, we have dust every day....

@Realbadlarry, while that might be true, its not something we have here.... like snow on the strip in vegas... not common, but it happens.

Phoenix gets them all the time, pretty impressive when some of them come rolling in.

I was driving home through guatay on old 80 with my kids about 5:30 when we saw it commin. Was low brown haze. Figured out what it was pretty fast. Got home and it hit about 5 min later. Was raining sand. Looked like a brown fog over the valley, thats when the static created atmospheric lightning. It was one constant thunder rumble that didnt stop for 30 min. The light ing was rolling through the sand cloud above, never hit the ground. It never rained in pine valley. NEver seen a sandstorm make it over the hill to our town before.
