Absolutely gorgeous pics, Joseph!! Because your work is always awesome, I'll cut ya a little slack on the #mircoburst reference. Not a microburst though. That's just a nice rain shaft. 👍🏻😁👏🏻 #MinorFlub #NothingButLoveForYa

I remember being taught to stay well clear of these when I used to fly. The downdrafts created were up to 500 feet per second and we only flew at 500 feet!!! Amazing weather phenomenon but highly dangerous as well 🚁 💨 #Mircoburst

Stunning view of a microburst over Phoenix captured by helicopter pilot Bruce Haffner in 2016. Microbursts are intense, localized downdrafts produced by thunderstorms. https://t.co/Z7dlu8Yw5F
