Description:

The correct answer is:

✅ Haboobs

Why?

Haboob (from Arabic habb = "wind") is the term Arizonans use for monsoon-driven dust storms.

These walls of dust (up to 5,000 ft tall) form when thunderstorms collapse, creating outflow winds that sweep up desert sand.

Key Features:

Visibility drops to near-zero.

Lasts 10–30 minutes but can cause chaos (crashes, flight delays).

Why Not the Others?

Ghibli: A hot, dusty wind in Libya (North Africa).

Loos: Not a meteorological term.

Fun Fact: Phoenix sees ~3 haboobs yearly—some stretch 100+ miles wide! 🌪️🏜️

Safety Tip: Pull over if caught driving in one—turn off lights to avoid collisions! 🚗💨
