Discussion: Storms will again form off the Mogollon Rim and head southwest and west into the lower levels producing damaging winds, large hail, and flash flooding in the second day of this multi-day peak monsoon event. Storms will form on the CA/NV border and those will head southeast with their outflow boundaries and hit the Colorado River Valley areas. Yes, this is the type of pattern for the entire Colorado River Valley to be hit so if you are there, get to shore today and do not be caught out on the river when these hit. It also is the day for YUMA PROPER to be slammed harder than anything this season.
