"It's Raining Mud"



So, the weirdest thing happened in San Antonio on Tuesday. It rained mud! No lie. Well, I guess it may have been some kind of pollen in a cloud, but check out the photos I took on Wednesday. Everyone's cars were COVERED like they had been mudding! I have never seen anything like it. Anyone understand such a phenomenon?

Surprisingly, it is called a "haboob". It happens when dust storms lift dust into the atmosphere, it joins a storm cloud, and then, mixed with the rain, returns to earth in the form of muddy rain. In this case, the mud was reddish, and most likely, from West TX.
