that stretch is a breeding ground for dust storms and AZ can get some crazy weather...when i lived out there we had a "monsoon" that ended up being classified a hurricane (yes a hurricane in a land locked desert...i doubted it too but at the time all the news stations were talking about how this was a hurricane in the desert...something about horizontal rain and the way it was blowing), and that storm spurred a tornado about 2 miles from where i was living...i sat in the garage and watch air conditioners and roofs get torn off like they were nothing....crazy i tell ya
