| episode_narrative | Daytime heating combined with divergence aloft associated with an easterly wave near the Arizona/New Mexico border promoted thunderstorm initiation across southeast Arizona during the afternoon of the 30th. Outflow boundaries generated from these thunderstorms raced northwest toward south-central Arizona, resulting in a dust storm in Pinal County where multiple instances of dense blowing dust less than 1/4 mile were reported. New thunderstorm development occurred along these boundaries with some thunderstorms becoming severe. Numerous instances of damaging winds were reported across the Phoenix area and down into northwest Pinal County, which included multiple downed trees and power poles. A very moist environment, with PWATs in excess of 1.80 allowed for thunderstorms to become efficient heavy rainfall producers. Rainfall amounts upwards of around 1.50 within an hour were reported during the event. There were multiple reports of flash flooding across northern parts of the Phoenix area, leading to several water rescues and making some roads impassable. Flash flooding also led to water and mud entering some apartments in north Phoenix causing extensive water damage. Isolated flash flooding occurred across Pinal, Gila, and Yuma Counties. No injuries were reported with this event. |
