State police shut down portions of Interstate 25 in Albuquerque, New Mexico, on Thursday because a wind storm kicked up dust, obscuring visibility in both directions. Msnbc.com's Al Stirrett reports that the blowing winds also resulted in power outages and delayed flights.
The National Weather Service said a winter storm warning was in effect for much of north and northeastern New Mexico until noon Friday, ABQJournal.com reported.
A similar scene occurred Wednesday on Interstate 10 from the Arizona state line to Las Cruces, CBS5AZ.com reported.

We are all just dust in the wind
NEETO !
Looks just like Phoenix.
"The LORD has HIS Way in the Whirlwind and the Clouds are the Dust of HIS Feet." Nahum 1:3 Sorry "mother nature," there is only Father GOD! Glory Be to HIS Name Forever!
Alan! I believe in God too! You don't have to be or sound so fundamentalist! Fundamentalism is not good! You comments don't make any sense. God made nature and nature behaves according to God! Chill-out dude! extremism is not good! The wind, the dust is been happening "millions" of years ago!
"In the desert, you can't remember your name 'cause there ain't no one to give a name"! Group America or The Eagles! Good all folk's music! ...tara, ra!ra!ra!ra!ra!...tara!ra!ra!ra!ra!...................
We are lucky we are living in this time of earth; where there are no volcanoes exploding left and right!!!!
We are living and age of gossip and fear and scandal controlled by a few filthy rich people telling people what to think and believe, why to buy or not to buy, what to do or not to do!
The stupid thing about it is that those few people die like we all do and take nothing with them! All because they want it all now! Like 5 year olds who think: "mine, mine, mine!!!!!"...I have to do what every body does!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!....................
I had less fear when the Soviet Union was in than now that is out! A sector of The American press has this culture of making fear where there is none! Yesterday was the Sun flares, a while ago was a comet- of which they made a movie about-and money-, the comment never came, now it is the sand storm in New Mexico. A week ago so many things cause cancer, now they don't; and tomorrow something else will. The sad thing about all this culture is that "People" will believe it just 'cause the press says it! people believe more what tv says than what they've learned in school or college! Joseph Stalin said that "the more you tell a lie the more people will believe it; and that's what the modern world is doing to the people 'cause they want to make money and wars for their own interest. There is an absence of conscience! Truth will has set us free; now, lies are making us slaves to greed and abuse of power! We may be in a course of chaos 'cause lies divide us!
Dusts storms are normal in that part of the country! I lived there! if that happened here in Florida.....that will be news! It is still knes but nothing to make a scandal about!
Dust in AZ or NM??? That's like saying wind in Chicago or rain in Fl. Give me me a break.
Carlos - she no lie, she no lie, she no lie...you high as a mo fo, silly bro.
