This paper documents the development of nocturnal flows in the wide open Phoenix, Arizona (U.S.A) valley (30 km × 100 km) that is bordered by a large nearly flat plain to the west and high mountains to the north and east. Local thermally driven winds concomitant with the absence of significant synop...
