PHOENIX — We are still dealing with flooding along the Gila River this week as water continues to be released from dams upstream.
A Flood Warning is in effect for the Gila River below Painted Rock Dam until 11 a.m. next Tuesday. Water releases from the dam started Tuesday morning and will continue to increase, peaking at 3,000 cubic feet per second. Flooding is expected along farmlands and low-water crossings along the Gila River in western Maricopa County and northeastern Yuma County.
With high pressure still in place, Thursday will be our last dry and warm day for a while…
