| episode_narrative | An upper level low presssure system moving east across southern Arizona on May 9th spread moisture into eastern Arizona, and this led to the development of scattered thunderstorms over the lower central deserts during the afternoon hours. Some of the storms produced gusty microburst winds in excess of 60 knots, and the outflow winds moving over dry ground produced a series of dust storms which affected both the greater Phoenix metropolitan area and the area around Gila Bend. |
| event_narrative | An upper level low pressure system moving east across southern Arizona spread moisture into eastern Arizona and led to the development of scattered thunderstorms over the central deserts during the afternoon hours on May 9th. The storms generated gusty microburst winds in excess of 60 knots, and the outflow winds moving over dry ground produced a series of dust storms; one of these affected the greater Phoenix metropolitan area. At 427 PM, a trained spotter four miles south of Gilbert reported a dust storm. The dense blowing dust primarily affected the southern and southeast portions of the greater Phoenix area. The dense blowing dust created hazardous driving conditions during the afternoon rush hour, fortunately no significant accidents were reported. |
