Road closures were in place in New Mexico and Texas until Monday night. Video shared on social media showed a driver struggling to see as a wall of dust rapidly engulfed the car.

Two dust storms, also known as haboobs, enveloped regions in Texas and New Mexico Monday afternoon, creating unsafe road conditions.

A haboob (pronounced “huh-boob”) is a dust storm that appears like an advancing wall of dust and debris thousands of feet high and miles long.

The dust storm, known as a haboob, swept across parts of New Mexico at a rapid pace with near zero visibility and winds of 45 miles per hour.
