| episode_narrative | Late evening thunderstorms developed over far eastern portions of Riverside County on August 9th and some of the stronger storms produced gusty outflow winds reaching as high as 60 mph that stirred up significant amounts of blowing dust leading to dust storm conditions. The dense blowing dust affected areas along the lower Colorado River Valley including the community of Blythe. The official ASOS automatic weather station at the Blythe airport recorded a wind gust to 60 mph and also measured visibility down to one quarter of a mile at 2323PST; a Dust Storm Warning had been issued earlier for the area but the warning expired at 2300PST. Despite severely restricted visibility and hazardous driving conditions, no reports of accidents were received. |
