What’s that funny word?
Haboob is the Arabic-derived name for a particular type of dust storm carried on the wind of a weather front, and it is common to the deserts of the Middle East and North Africa.
The arid and semi-arid regions of North America—in fact, any dry region—may experience a haboob. In the U.S., it frequently occurs in the deserts of eastern California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas.
