As per the article way back on July 5th, the window between July 8th and the 15th would supply the metros with a lot of activity coming from the high terrain, or your north and east, and a dust storm is possible with this first round this evening so read on for details …
The flow is not strong, but not weak either. It is a moderate mid/upper level flow out of the northeast that will develop storms along the Mogollon Rim. These will shove through Payson and Globe. As they do so, outflow from them will split, one going for New River to Black Canyon City and the other for Gold Canyon and Queen Valley. Both of these will have the risk of thunderstorms with them as well, forming with the dust storm. Those are the main two key areas. The wind gust model provided in this article shows where the worst areas should be within Gila, Maricopa, Yavapai, and Pinal County for this evening’s outflow event.
NOTE: Travelling along I-17 north of Phoenix near and north of Black Canyon City is not recommended if you’re in a high profile vehicle. That area, with the cross outflow wind, will tip you over.
As stated in the article on July 5th (CLICK HERE) there is a break in the activity for Tucson today, but starting up again tomorrow. For the Phoenix metros, you are still scheduled for a major increase in storms toward the middle and end part of this 7-day period.
