episode_narrativeA mesoscale convective system (organized thunderstorms) producing a dust storm (haboob) in the Imperial Valley, Salton Sea and Borrego deserts on the evening of August 10th. Visibility was reported as low as 1/2 mile to 1 mile observed. This was followed by hours of lightning and heavy rain in the deserts, mountains and even reaching the coast at the city of San Diego. The system brought wind gusts 40 to 50 mph, heavy rainfall up to 2 inches in the San Diego mountains and desert slopes, and copious amounts of lightning with parts of the desert with localized flash flooding. The southern coastal San Diego County received near one quarter of an inch.
