| episode_narrative | Scattered thunderstorms developed across the south-central Arizona deserts, including the greater Phoenix area, during the afternoon and evening hours on July 9th. The storms generated strong and gusty outflow winds in excess of 50 mph at times. The gusty winds generated widespread dense blowing dust which led to numerous dust storms across the lower deserts. Some of the dust storms affected the greater Phoenix metropolitan area, others impacted open country to the west, southwest and southeast of the Phoenix area. In many cases visibility was lowered well below one quarter of a mile in dense blowing dust. Fortunately no accidents or injuries were reported due to the dust storms. |
| event_narrative | Thunderstorms developed over the lower deserts to the southwest of Phoenix during the early evening hours on July 9th; some of the stronger storms produced gusty outflow winds that stirred up significant amounts of blowing dust leading to dust storm conditions. At 1731MST, a trained spotter 7 miles northeast of Wintersburg reported visibility down to one quarter of a mile in dense blowing dust; the dust storm was near the intersection of 339th Avenue and Indian School Road. Later in the evening, another trained spotter 10 miles north of Gila Bend, near Highway 85, reported visibility lowered to 100 feet in a dust storm. This occurred at 1855MST. A Dust Storm Warning had been issued for the area at 1727MST and the warning was in effect through 1830MST. |
