Isolated thunderstorms developed to the south of the Mexican border during the afternoon hours on August 13th. The combination of excessive heat and dry conditions allowed the high based thunderstorms to produce strong and gusty outflow winds, estimated to be 50 mph or higher. The strong outflow winds spread to the north into the southern portions of Imperial county, and they generated dense blowing dust and sand, creating dust storm conditions in towns such as Calexico, Holtville and Seeley. The winds were strong enough to blow down a number of trees, some of which fell down and blocked roadways.

Dust Storm in IMPERIAL COUNTY EXCEPT THE LOWER COLORADO RIVER VALLEY, CALIFORNIA

Isolated thunderstorms developed to the south of the Mexican border, and they affected the southern portions of Imperial county during the afternoon hours on August 13th. Due to the excessive heat and dry conditions, the high based thunderstorms were able to generate strong gusty outflow winds estimated to be in excess of 50 mph. The winds spread to the north and picked up substantial amounts of dust and sand, creating dust storm conditions which affected towns such as Calexico and Seeley. At about 4 pm, a trained weather spotter 5 miles southwest of Seeley reported visibility at one quarter mile on Interstate 8, a result of the dense blowing dust. Another trained spotter in Calexico reported near zero visibility in a dust storm, at 410 pm. Finally, at 405 pm local emergency managers in Heber reported visibility near zero in a dust storm, and they estimated winds to be at least 50 mph.

A persistent ridge of high pressure across the region produced warmer than normal temperatures and below normal rainfall during the month of July. Mean temperatures for the month were 4 to 7 degrees above normal. Rainfall for the month totaled only around an inch or less which was about 3 to 5 inches below normal. This caused the drought that began in June to worsen and expand across eastern Iowa, northwest and western Illinois and extreme northeast Missouri. According to the U.S. Drought Monitor, extreme northeast Missouri was in a D2 severe drought on July 3, 2012. By the 10th of July, the severe drought category also included much of eastern Iowa roughly north of Interstate 80, and northwest Illinois north of Highway 30. On July 17, the Drought Monitor classified all of eastern Iowa, northwest and western Illinois and extreme northeast Missouri as severe drought. However, due to the persistent heat and lack of rainfall the drought continued to worsen. By the last week of July, the entire region was either in a D2 severe or D3 extreme drought. Crops were showing stress due to the heat and reduced crop yields were being noted. Because the severe to extreme drought continued into August exact damage amounts to the crops are not known at this time.
