Tucson, Arizona – A Flash Flood Watch goes into effect for portions of southern Arizona on Monday, September 14, running from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., as excessive moisture creates a high risk of flooding for washes and roadways.
According to the National Weather Service , the region is facing an enhanced risk of heavy rainfall. This poses a danger to motorists, particularly those who may encounter flooded low water crossings.
Drivers should be prepared to turn around if they encounter flooded roads. Outdoor activities in low lying areas or near desert washes should be avoided during the watch period, as conditions can change rapidly when excessive rainfall occurs.
Stay vigilant for potential warnings or advisories that may be issued if flash flooding becomes imminent later in the day.
