Couldn’t see 10 feet across my backyard in Tempe. Everything including the pool is now covered in dust. Newsman on local TV says he’s lived here 29 years and never saw it so bad. What a mess

That’s just a nice gentle reminder that we live in a desert.
You’ll feel better after you get some rain!

I’m near Arcadia and there is dirt everywhere, which then got a sprinkle of rain on top... just enough to turn the stuff to concrete. My dog thinks it’s delicious though. She’s been licking it off the sidewalk. Weirdo.

Do the folks in Phoenix realize that, when snow melts, it becomes liquid WATER.

I remember them well. We’d get good and powdered, then just enough rain would fall to make everything mud coated. The pool would take couple of weeks to clear up.
