WHAT
Thunderstorms will initially develop over the Mogollon Rim and other sky islands of Southeast Arizona, then track southwest into the valleys of Southeast Arizona and become widespread during the late afternoon, then move across the lower deserts of Southeast Arizona through the evening. The stronger storms will produce organized thunderstorm outflow winds between 45-55 mph, resulting in dense blowing dust with visibility between one-quarter and one-half mile and possibly a haboob with near-zero visibility. For the Extreme Heat Warning, dangerously hot conditions with temperatures 101 to 106. Major to Extreme HeatRisk is expected. WHERE

Hazardous driving conditions due to reduced visibility. Heat related illnesses increase significantly during extreme heat events.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS
Persons with respiratory problems should make preparations to stay indoors until the storm passes. Be ready for a sudden drop in visibility to near zero. If you encounter blowing dust or blowing sand on the roadway or see it approaching, pull off the road as far as possible and put your vehicle in park. Turn the lights all the way off and keep foot off the brake pedal. Remember, 'Pull Aside, Stay Alive'. Do not leave young children and pets in unattended vehicles. Car interiors will reach lethal temperatures in a matter of minutes. Take extra precautions when outside. Wear lightweight and loose fitting clothing. Try to limit strenuous activities to early morning or evening. Take action when you see symptoms of heat exhaustion and heat stroke. Take extra precautions if you work or spend time outside.
