Back in February, a freak snowstorm covered the Arizona Diamondbacks/Colorado Rockies spring coaching facility in Scottsdale, Ariz. with snow and hail. The place regarded like a elegant winter wonderland. It does snow in Phoenix, however hardly ever that much. Even with Al Gore’s Climate Change ™ occurring just as he stated it would, it was unnerving.
What larger Phoenix really needs is an effective dust storm. That’s closer to normal, no? Nicely, they obtained one Monday and area photographers caught it as the haboob — because it’s called — approached Chase Subject downtown. The Diamondbacks and Padres had been safely inside the baseball stadium, which incorporates a retractable roof for events identical to this. And for those 110-diploma days.

Beautiful, however there is no method the game might have played by way of such a dusting. All hail the domed stadium! The D-backs beat the Padres 6-1 behind proper-hander Brandon McCarthy and slugger Paul Goldschmidt.

This is a view simply outside of the stadium. It appears to be like like a dust assault.
