The incredible footage shows the moment the capital of Phoenix was swallowed by a massivedust storm, triggered by a monsoon packed with thunder and lighting, high winds and rain.
As winds ripped through at an estimated 50 to 75mph, daylight was turned to darkness formore than an hour as the dust storm smothered the roads of the Arizona highway.
Shocking videos show the wall of dust as it engulfs portions of the state and the blue skyquickly turns to orange as it is turned into darkness.
Professional storm chaster Mike Oblinski, who filmed the footage, said: "The dust storm was sobad everyone stopped driving on the road.
“It was intense and pretty dangerous."
The US National Weather Service said the thick wall of dust had reduced visibility to less than400 metres.
And officials were forced to issue several warnings of "near-zero visibility" and "life-threateningtravel”.
The dust storms are known as Haboobs and take place as a result of outflow winds from strongthunderstorms.

They are common during Arizona’s monsoonseason, which runs from mid-June to the end ofSeptember.
Ken Waters, National Weather Servicemeteorologist, said: “The dust gets lofted andbasically just forms a big cloud that movesrapidly. As it moves, it tends to pick up moredust.”
Phoenix was slammed by a second monster monsoon storm on Monday, which groundedflights and damaged property across the state.
Chief meteorologist for 3TV, Royal Norman, said it was one of the biggest storms of theseason.
He added: "I think this dust storm is going to push through the entire Valley.”
