Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeScattered thunderstorms developed across south-central Arizona, including the greater Phoenix metropolitan area, during the late afternoon and evening hours on August 8th. The thunderstorms produced typical monsoon weather hazards; many of the storms produced gusty and damaging outflow winds in excess of 60 mph. There were a number of weather stations that measured wind gusts 58 mph or greater and many reports were taken involving damage to trees, flagpoles, power lines and other structures. Many reports of heavy rain were taken indicating peak rain rates well in excess of one inch per hour. The heavy rain led to a few episodes of flash flooding, including washes that were flowing heavily and exceeding action stages or overflowing their banks. At 2100MST a video taken by the public showed a road closed by deep water flowing over the road at a low water crossing about 2 miles northeast of Fountain Hills.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeThunderstorms with locally heavy rain developed across the central portions of the greater Phoenix metropolitan area during the evening hours on August 8th; some of the stronger storms affected areas around the town of Paradise Valley. Peak rain rates with the stronger storms were in excess of one inch per hour and resulted in some street flooding in the area. According to a trained spotter about 1 mile southeast of Paradise Valley, curb-to-curb street flooding was observed at about 1950MST. The flooding was just west of Scottsdale Road and between Jackrabbit Road and McDonald Drive. An Urban and Small Stream Flood Advisory was eventually issued for the area at 2018MST and it remained in effect until 2215MST.
