It comes and goes

Everyone just got their patio cleaned up from Saturday’s haboob when it seems to have turned around and come right back again on Sunday………..same time of day.  I guess the ground just gets so hot that it has to do something desperate.  The strange part of Sunday’s dirt storm was the fact it came from the exact opposite direction. 

 

This is Saturday’s picture with winds from the East/Southeast:

And this is yesterday’s storm with winds from the West:

Our palm trees get a good cleaning this way anyhow.  Certainly is some strange interesting weather here in the summer.  The weatherman said some cities up north in Maricopa county got significant rainfall yesterday but that certainly was not by us.  We’re still DRY.  At least yesterday was cooler.
