Flood Warnings Across Arizona Amid Historic Rainfall
An atmospheric river is causing widespread flooding across the Mountain West and Southwest regions, with Arizona being particularly hard-hit. Nearly all of Arizona, along with parts of southern Utah, southwest Colorado, western New Mexico, and southern Nevada, are under flood watches through Monday. The National Weather Service (NWS) Phoenix reports near-record moisture levels for this time of year. Specific areas in Arizona, including Coconino, Navajo, Maricopa, and Pima counties, are under flood warnings. Sedona has ordered mandatory evacuations as Oak Creek reached historic levels, and emergency crews have conducted multiple rooftop rescues. Additional evacuations have been reported in Camp Verde, Cornville, Gila County, and Queen Valley. Flash flood warnings remain active in Apache, Navajo, and southeast Arizona counties.
