Flood watches cover large parts of Nevada and Arizona.
An 86.3 mph gust was reported at 9:53 p.m. local time from an automated sensor at Phoenix’s Sky Harbor International Airport, but O’Malley and his colleagues are suspicious about that reading.
“The 86 mph is erroneous,” he explained. “We entered a temporary gust of 76 mph that was based off of a tower 50 meters tall, but even that is a little more than we think was happening at the ground. We’re sending technicians out to inspect the equipment … it’s been suspect lately.” A gust to 76 mph would be more in line with a 75 mph gust observed at Mesa Gateway Airport during the same storms.
“We called [Sky Harbor] and there’s no damage,” said O’Malley. “There are a few trees down out there, but the airport has nothing.”Monday marks the last day of widespread afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms in the Southwest. Most will flare up during the heat of the day and linger until a few hours after dark. Las Vegas could see an isolated flooding downpour. The city averages 4.18 inches of precipitation per year, including less than a third of an inch in September.
