FLASH FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH SATURDAY EVENING

A low pressure system will bring a few rounds of heavy showers and thunderstorms through Saturday night. The strongest storms will be capable of producing high rain rates and flash flooding of washes, small streams, and poor drainage areas. Flash flooding may also lead to river rises. Past and recent burn scars will be especially prone to flash flooding and debris flow. You should monitor later forecasts and be prepared to take action. Visit the National Weather Service website for more information: https://forecast.weather.gov/showsigwx.php?warnzone=AZZ543&warncounty=AZC013&firewxzone=AZZ132&local_place1=Phoenix%20AZ&product1=Flash+Flood+Watch&lat=33.4483&lon=-112.0758#.YPrZyI5KhaQ

A fire in Oregon has burned over 3000 acres, bigger than NYC the news said. Be careful out there in Sedona.

Sedona is failing its role of protecting the environment.

Firefighter shortages matter and it’s not going to get better. The cancel culture that you allow to be promoted by the people elected implicates fire fighting as white and privileged like the police. To be a good community citizen means little to our local governments. Thank you, SFD firefighters.
