A storm system will shift across the southwest U.S. through Thursday with widespread showers and isolated thunderstorms. Isolated flooding is possible. High-elevation snow is also expected in parts of Nevada and the southern Sierra Nevada range. East of this storm, above average temperatures will challenge or break daily record high temperatures this week in the southern Plains and southeast U.S. Read More >

A Flood Watch has been issued for Yavapai County through Wednesday afternoon. Periods of rain, heavy at times, have affected much of Yavapai County since early Tuesday morning. Additional rainfall through Wednesday will lead to a threat of flooding.
It will be a wet and chilly few days, with rain and high elevation snow forecast to continue through at least Thursday morning/afternoon. Snow levels will remain above 8000' Tuesday, before dropping down to 6500-7500' late Wednesday and into Thursday.
We could see impactful snowfall by mid-week, so now would be a good time to triple check your emergency kit located in your vehicle. Having extra water/snacks, batteries, flashlights, etc. could truly be a lifesaver!
