episode_narrativeThunderstorms developed across portions of south central Arizona, including the greater Phoenix area, during the late evening hours on August 10th. The storms got a late start due to early morning convection that helped to stabilize the atmosphere and delay new thunderstorms from forming. Thunderstorms ranged from the far western deserts, including Buckeye, through Scottsdale and into the higher terrain to the northeast of Arizona including the areas around Saguaro Lake. The storms brought typical monsoonal weather hazards, including gusty and damaging winds to near 60 mph, very heavy rain with peak rain rates well over one inch per hours, flash flooding and dense blowing dust. At 2245MST the public reported near zero visibility in a dust storm over far north Scottsdale. At the same time, members of the public witnessed vehicles that were stuck and flooded on dirt roads 7 miles northwest of Saguaro Lake and near Sycamore Creek. In addition, a dust storm occurred late in the evening over the northern portion of the greater Phoenix area.
event_narrativeThunderstorms with strong gusty outflow winds developed across northern portions of the greater Phoenix metropolitan area during the late evening hours on August 10th. Some of the stronger storms generated gusty outflow winds in excess of 40 mph that stirred up dense blowing dust and created dust storm conditions. Among other locations, the dust storm affected far north Scottsdale in the area north of Bell Road and east of Highway 51. At 2244MST a member of the public reported near zero visibility in a dust storm near the intersection of Tatum Boulevard and Grovers Avenue. A Dust Storm Warning was in effect at the time of the report.
