An incredible video has surfaced of a bizarre weather phenomenon that, within a matter of minutes, transformed day into night in the Belarus city of Soligorsk on Monday.
Thankfully, while property damage was reported in the region, nobody was injured during the storm, says the Russian news outlet RT.
A cold front near the border with Ukraine created the epic dust storm called a “haboob,” which is rare in the region at this time of year. What’s more, the storm also included heavy rain.
It appears Mother Nature reminded us that science fiction may not be so outlandish after all.
