Arizona is experiencing cooler but more humid conditions, with a high of 99°F (37°C) recorded on Wednesday.
Storms have developed across the high country and are moving southward, bringing gusty winds, blowing dust, and a risk of flash flooding.

Impact & Risks

The primary risks include flash flooding, especially in foothills north and east of Arizona and in the high country. Gusty winds and blowing dust may reduce visibility, posing hazards for drivers. The storms could also disrupt daily activities and services, such as power and water supply.

The combination of rain and dust storms may also lead to hazardous conditions for outdoor activities.
