A large dust storm swept through northern Mexico on Saturday, April 19, affecting 15 municipalities in its path.
Timelapse satellite imagery from the Cooperative Institute for Research in the Atmosphere (CIRA) taken from April 19 to the early morning of April 20 shows the haboob raging southwards.
The dust storm created hazy conditions across northern Mexico, prompting authorities to close the Pan-American Highway due to low visibility. Credit: CSU/CIRA & NOAA via Storyful
