The dust storm created hazardous driving conditions, with near-zero visibility and strong winds posing risks to motorists. The storm caused power outages for thousands of residents in Phoenix, Tempe, Scottsdale, and Mesa, with restoration times estimated at 2-3 hours for most areas. Flash flooding was reported in urban areas, highways, and low-lying regions, increasing the risk of property damage and travel disruptions. Locations such as Sky Harbor Airport, Downtown Phoenix, and Tempe Marketplace were particularly affected. The combination of heavy rain and strong winds also heightened the risk of falling debris and localized flooding.
