 | | Significant flash flooding occurred over a localized portion of western Gila County, Arizona, an area of relatively rugged terrain east of Phoenix (Figure 1), during the early morning hours of 9 September 2003. |
 | | Precipitable water was 1.25"-1.5" over south central Arizona during much of the day, then increased to in excess of 1.5" during the night of 8-9 September as moist southwest flow increased (precipitable water was 130-140% of normal over south central Arizona during the night of 8-9 September). |
 | | Between midnight and 3 am MST, a quasi-stationary MCS developed and affected extreme eastern Maricopa County and western Gila County (Figures 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20). |
