| episode_narrative | A weakening inverted trough over northern Sonora along with an upper level jet positioned along the West Coast provided the necessary forcing needed to get thunderstorm development during the afternoon and evening across southeast California on the 30th. Deep moisture in place allowed for thunderstorms to produce locally heavy rainfall, which resulted in multiple instances of flash flooding. Some thunderstorms became strong to severe, leading to isolated cases of damaging wind gusts and localized dense blowing dust. One injury was reported after two tractor trailers were blown over along Interstate 10 several miles east of Chiriaco Summit by strong outflow winds from nearby thunderstorms. |
| event_narrative | A trained weather spotter reported near-zero visibility on I-8 at Forrester Road due to dense blowing dust. Gusty outflow winds from nearby thunderstorms was the cause of the dense blowing dust. No damage or injuries were reported. |
