Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeThunderstorms continued to develop across south central Arizona during the afternoon hours on August 12th, and they persisted well into the evening. Many of the storms affected the greater Phoenix metropolitan area. Due to excessively moist atmospheric conditions, a Flash Flood Watch was in effect from noon August 12th through 5 am on Wednesday August 13th. Many of the thunderstorms produced locally heavy rain with rainfall rates in excess of 2 inches per hour at times. The heavy rain led to urban flooding, flash flooding, and eventually areal flooding which affected much of the greater Phoenix area, especially the southeast and south central portions.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeScattered to numerous thunderstorms developed across the southeastern portions of the greater Phoenix metropolitan area during the afternoon hours on August 12th, and they affected communities such as Mesa and Gilbert. The stronger storms produced locally heavy rainfall with peak rain rates in excess of 2 inches per hour. The heavy rain led to significant urban flooding; at 1639MST a trained spotter 4 miles northwest of Gilbert reported very heavy rain and street flooding at the intersection of Baseline Road and Gilbert Road. The rain was so heavy that visibility was lowered to near zero miles. A Flash Flood Warning was in effect at the time of the spotter report.
