Stephen Watkins, a pilot with ABC15's Cliff Castle Chopper says these conditions aren't just dangerous for those on the ground. MORE ⬇️
Wind speeds are expected to clock upwards of 40 miles per hour in some areas, including in Phoenix.Watkins gave ABC15 crews a look inside the helicopter that is housed near the Scottsdale Airport.Watkins says most days winds are calm in the sky, but things can change when storms come in.
"Mostly, when you're getting gusty up to that, you want to come back and try to land, as far as helicopters or small aircraft go," he added. "They can't come in and make a landing at that point. They'd have to do a go-around and that brings on delays," said Watkins.Additionally, he says it's a good idea to weigh down trampolines, tarps, and other objects that can go airborne during a windstorm. This is to help prevent them from getting caught in power lines or toppling over like trees oftentimes do.
