Must-See: Fire Tornado
September 18, 2012

An Australian filmmaker was in the right place at the right time to shoot this incredible 90-foot-tall fire tornado. He says it sounded like a fighter jet, despite there being no wind in the Alice Springs area.

The biggest dust storm in living memory rolls into Phoenix, Arizona, on July 5, 2011, reducing visibility to zero. Desert thunderstorms kicked up the mile-high wall of dust and sand.

Tumbleweeds catch in the furrows of an unplanted cotton field near Brownfield, southwest of Lubbock, Texas. High winds and a record-breaking heat wave led to damaging erosion, says Buzz Cooper, who runs a cotton gin nearby. “It was just like a hot fan in an oven,” he says.

It is an awesome image, Ticomaya.
It must have been quite some experience to be in Phoenix at the time, too!
Very scary.

@msolga,
Actually not scary at all. Just a little wind and some dust. The storms (tornadoes) in Kansas are far more scary.
