Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA powerful and slow moving winter storm moved across Arizona from February 21st into the 22nd; the storm brought locally heavy rain to much of south-central Arizona as well as heavy mountain snow. Although conditions were not overly unstable during the afternoon, they were sufficient to allow for the generation of isolated thunderstorms. On February 21st, a strong storm generated wind damage in Tolleson. On the 22nd, the storms produced a pair of funnel clouds. At 1435MST the public reported one of the funnel clouds in the town of Peoria, near the Padres field. Later that afternoon, at 1730MST, another funnel was captured on video about 4 miles to the northeast of Wittmann. The funnels were noteworthy and generated media attention due to their rarity, not because they caused any damage or other significant impacts.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeA powerful winter storm continued to push east across Arizona on February 22nd; although the storm mainly generated moderate to heavy desert rain and higher elevation snow, it also produced a couple of funnel clouds during the afternoon hours. One such funnel cloud was reported in the town of Peoria. At 1435MST, a member of the public reported a funnel cloud just to the southwest of Padres field, about 1 mile northeast of Peoria. Radar data confirmed the rotation within this funnel. As the funnel did not touch the ground, no damage resulted, however due to the rarity of funnel clouds it generated some media attention.
