Discussion

Storm activity over southern AZ is looking to be only isolated through Thursday and thus dust storms are not expected so the risk of a dust related exceedance is Low. Storm coverage starts to slowly trend up late in the week and there may be increasing potential for blowing dust. Thus the risk increases to Moderate.
