| episode_narrative | Isolated to scattered thunderstorms developed to the west of Phoenix and over western portions of Maricopa County, during the middle and late evening hours on July 28th. The stronger storms produced intense rainfall with peak rain rates measured to be greater than one inch per hour. The heavy rains eventually led to significant flow down the Tiger Wash a bit to the east of the Maricopa-La Paz County line. The flowing wash resulted in flash flooding as water flowed across Eagle Eye Road. A Flash Flood Warning was issued at 2225MST and remained in effect through 0130MST the next morning. Personnel from the Maricopa County Flood Control District indicated that Eagle Eye Road was closed part of the day on Sunday July 28th for clean up of debris that had spilled onto the roadway. No accidents were reported due to the flash flooding. Finally, some of the storms generated gusty outflow winds that produced a dust storm west of Phoenix, near the town of Wittmann, during the early evening hours. |
| event_narrative | Thunderstorms developed over the western portions of Maricopa County, including the far northwest fringes of the greater Phoenix area, during the evening hours on July 28th. Some of the stronger storms generated gusty outflow winds measured to be in excess of 40 mph. The gusty winds stirred up desert dust and created dust storm conditions. According to a trained spotter located 10 miles to the southwest of the town of Wittmann, at 2029MST dust storm conditions reduced visibility to 50 feet in the Sun City Festival Development. Winds were measured at 43 mph. No Dust Storm Warning was in effect at the time. |
