| episode_narrative | Thunderstorms developed along the Mogollon Rim during the early part of the afternoon on the 9th. Relatively strong easterly mid level anticyclonic flow associated with the upper level ridge centered near the Arizona/Utah state line helped allow strong to severe thunderstorms to propagate westward into the lower deserts. The severe thunderstorms led to damaging winds gusts upwards of 60-65 mph across southeast portions of the Phoenix metro. Thee severe winds ahead of the thunderstorms also produced a dust storm that led to widespread reports of dense blowing dust across central and southeastern Phoenix and as far south as Casa Grande. A few isolated instances of flash flooding occurred as well, including the recent Telegraph burn scar where over 0.75 of rain fell. There were numerous reports of damage across eastern parts of the Valley, including numerous power poles and large trees down. No injuries were reported with these thunderstorms. |
| event_narrative | Severe thunderstorms produced a strong outflow boundary that brought a dust storm through portions of Phoenix, leading to multiple reports of dense blowing dust. At 2250MST, the Phoenix Sky Harbor airport ASOS (KPHX) recorded a quarter mile visibility due to blowing dust with a peak gust of 46 mph. Further west, a trained weather spotter reported visibility less than a quarter mile near 15th Avenue and Van Buren Street. Another trained weather spotter near Central Avenue and Palm Lane also reported visibility less than a quarter mile with skyscrapers in downtown Phoenix not visible. |
