A flood advisory is in effect for Mohave County until 5:30 p.m. Tuesday as active weather ramps up across Arizona, FOX 10 Phoenix reported.
Increased monsoon moisture is driving the pattern, with storm chances rising on Wednesday. The National Weather Service Phoenix office described the setup as a fairly typical monsoon configuration, with abundant moisture in place and easterly to southeasterly flow aloft, according to weather.gov/psr.
Separately, AZFamily reported that the NWS issued a Flash Flood Warning Tuesday covering Phoenix, Scottsdale, and Paradise Valley until 9:30 p.m., with Doppler radar indicating between 1 and 2.5 inches of rain already fallen across warned areas as of Tuesday evening.
For the Valley, the monsoon surge brings some relief from summer heat: Phoenix high temperatures are expected to drop to 97 degrees by Friday as the increased moisture works through the region.
Residents in Mohave County and the greater Phoenix area should monitor AFWS.org and NWS Phoenix for updated warnings as storm activity continues through the week.
