Haboob in Lubbock

My oh my! What happened yesterday looked like the scene out of Hildago when the huge dirt storm was rolling in! That is exactly what happened here! There I was, sitting on my bed, writing and it went from sunny to pitch black, then orange! I heard the wind hit the house and looked out the window. The top of the carport was lifting up on it's steel frames. I had no idea if it was a tornado or what. I happened to be home alone, (with the dogs) and no phone.
the swing before the top blew off

the alley as the storm was beginning

the wall of dirt blowing into town. Benny said, "run BoBo! It's going to get us!"
he's 5.
