Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeDuring the evening hours on April 29th, an unseasonably strong upper level low pressure system moved across Arizona; during the late evening hours a well defined band of showers and isolated thunderstorms moved ahead of the main upper low and across much of the greater Phoenix metropolitan area. Although thunderstorms were rather isolated, some of them generated a number of cloud to ground lightning strokes, one of which struck a home in central Phoenix at about 2220MST. The lightning strike caused a fire to begin on the roof of a home near 32nd Street and Campbell Avenue. Firefighters were quick to arrive at the scene and put out the fire, limiting damage to the home. No injuries were reported.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeDuring the late evening hours on April 29th, a band of showers and isolated thunderstorms pushed east across the central portion of the greater Phoenix area. The convection was developing ahead of an unseasonably strong upper level low pressure system moving through Arizona. Although thunderstorms were isolated, a couple of the stronger storms generated several cloud to ground lightning strikes, one of which struck a home in central Phoenix. According to local broadcast media, at 2220MST a lightning strike hit the roof of a two story home in Phoenix, causing a fire to break out on the roof. The home was located near the intersection of 32nd Street and Campbell Avenue. Fortunately, the Phoenix Fire Department was able to quickly respond to the fire and put out the flames, limiting damage to the home. There were no injuries reported.
