If you’re hunkered down at home tonight, you’ve likely noticed that the Valley is currently in the thick of a significant monsoon event. As of Sunday night, storms have been rolling across the Phoenix area, bringing a mix of heavy rain, high winds, and hail that has made for a rough end to the weekend.
According to the latest reports from [abc15.com](https://www.abc15.com/news/local-news/live-updates-monsoon-storms-moving-through-the-valley), the weather has been severe enough to trigger a Flood Watch for the entire Valley, with officials warning that flash flooding remains a real possibility as the storms continue to move through. It’s a classic reminder of how quickly our desert weather can shift, and it’s a good night to stay off the roads if you can.
Beyond the wind and rain, the storms have taken a toll on the local power grid. The situation has been fluid throughout the evening as utility crews work to manage outages. As of 10:50 p.m., APS reported that approximately 6,400 customers were still without power. Meanwhile, SRP has been making progress on restoration efforts, with their tracking site noting that 1,800 customers remained without electricity at that time, down from higher numbers reported earlier in the night.
For those of you in the northern parts of the metro area, the storms have been particularly intense. Radar updates from 10:01 p.m. noted reports of at least quarter-sized hail falling with a severe thunderstorm just south of Anthem.
If you are dealing with power issues, it is worth keeping an eye on the respective outage maps for APS and SRP to get the most current information for your specific neighborhood. As always, stay safe, keep your devices charged, and if you happen to capture any photos or videos of the weather in your area, the team at ABC15 is asking residents to share them at share@abc15.com.
