A late afternoon monsoon storm brought dust and heavy rain to parts of the southwest Valley, with storms then forming through parts of Phoenix and stretching into Scottsdale.
Rainfall rates reached up to 2" per hour, and heavy lightning was also seen with the storms.
Some spectacular #lightning over the west valley tonight. Stay safe out there! #abc15wx #azwx #Monsoon2016 pic.twitter.com/jL9sY4pL0H
