Converging Outflows Again?Latest Doppler Radar imagery shows three separate outflows making there way into the valley. One was moving up from the south, currently located from just south of Florence stretching westward toward Santan. A second was moving in from the west, and currently moving through Glendale. The third and final outflow was moving down from the north, and was located near Fountain Hills. While these outflows are weaker than what was seen on Thursday, which allowed strong to severe thunderstorms to developed across the valley, they still have the potential to interact with each other, leading to a slight chance of thunderstorms across the area this afternoon and evening, especially with the fairly moist atmosphere in the area this afternoon. Over the next hour or so, these outflow boundaries will need to be watched closely.

7:10: T-Storms Just S Of Gold CanyonThunderstorms have developed just to the south of Gold Canyon, along an outflow boundary moving to the north. These storms and additional storms may move into the region over the next hour or so. Any storms that develop will have the potential to produce heavy rainfall, strong winds and hail.

6:50pm: Thunderstorms FormingLatest Doppler Radar indicates thunderstorms are developing along and just behind an outflow boundary between Florence Junction and Queen Creek. Thunderstorms were almost stationary but additional development along this outflow boundary, moving to the north, is possible over the next hour. Another outflow, moving toward the SE, has been generated by a severe thunderstorm near Cave Creek. As discussed in our last post, outflow interactions over the next one to two hours will need to be watched very closely.

Thunderstorms This Evening?Latest Doppler Radar imagery indicates several outflows moving toward/into the valley from the WNW, S and SE. These should be watched closely over the next couple hours to see if any of these interact with one another resulting in additional thunderstorm development within the area. With a somewhat unstable and fairly moist atmosphere any lifting mechanism, such as a converging outflow, has the potential to generate thunderstorms, some which could contain heavy rainfall and strong winds.

5:45pm: Strong T-Storms E; Strong WindsStrong to severe thunderstorms have developed this afternoon along the higher terrain to the north and east of the area. These storms were generally moving to the west southwest. The strongest storms, at the time of this post, were located in the Globe/Miami region, as well as near Roosevelt. Latest Doppler Radar indicates the strong thunderstorm near Globe has produced an outflow which was moving to the west, toward the area. This outflow will likely move through the area later this afternoon resulting in gusty winds. This outflow could also allow additional thunderstorms to form in and around the area later this afternoon/evening. Be sure to monitor the weather regularly over the next several hours via your favorite media outlet or the National Weather Service.

Strong To Severe Thunderstorms - Moving In?Latest Doppler Radar and satellite imagery shows strong to severe thunderstorms have developed in the high country to the north and east of the valley, as well as locations to our southeast. The strongest storms are currently to the east of Globe, and were generally moving to the southwest. Over the next few hours these storms will need to be watched closely, to see if they continue to move/develop closer to the area. With moist conditions and plenty of daytime heating, there is a chance of thunderstorms, some with strong gusty winds and heavy rainfall across portions of the area later this afternoon and evening.

6:50pm: Severe Thunderstorm / Strong OutflowA severe thunderstorm around Gilbert and Higley at 6:25pm, has produced a strong outflow moving to the ENE. This outflow could bring gusty winds to the area within the next hour, along with the possibility of additional thunderstorms developing. The image below is the Base Velocity taken at 6:25pm, showing the strong downburst which produced this strong outflow. Keep a close eye on the radar over the next hour or two to see where thunderstorms form.
