Briefings
From the Forecaster
Severe Storm Risk Friday
Created by the NWS Flagstaff WFO
A plume of deep moisture will combine with a weather disturbance to bring showers and thunderstorms to much of Arizona on Friday. A few storms may become severe, especially along and south of the Mogollon Rim including Yavapai & GIla counties. Large hail and damaging winds are the main threats, with a risk of flash flooding as well.
Friday Flood Watch
Created by the NWS Phoenix WFO
A Flood Watch has been issued for Maricopa County, Northwestern Pinal County, and Southern Gila County on Friday. Showers and thunderstorms will develop across portions of Southern and Central AZ starting early in the morning, with the highest rain rates and best coverage of showers and storms likely during the afternoon into the early evening. Not all areas will see heavy rain, and there remains uncertainty in rainfall totals, but isolated/embedded thunderstorm activity will result in locally heavy rainfall with rates upwards of 1-2" per hour leading to an enhanced potential for flash flooding.
