episode_narrativeStrong thunderstorms developed across southeastern Arizona during the afternoon hours on June 27th. The storms produced gusty outflow winds which spread to the northwest and generated dense blowing dust across portions of the central deserts, including the greater Phoenix metropolitan area. Dust storms were reported by a number of trained weather spotters, as visibilities dropped below one quarter of a mile. In addition to the dense blowing dust, damaging microburst winds were also reported in the community of Toltec, in northern Pinal county.
