Arizona Flash Floods Kill 4 People, Many MIA
Flooding has become all too prevalent in the world and is a major cause of death in the United States. Every year, roughly 125 people pass from the flooding, and the number keeps increasing. On September 26th, 2025, flash floods ravaged Arizona, especially the city of Globe. Three residents died in the flooding, while a fourth was found in Scottsdale. Globe Mayor Al Gameros spoke out via social media about what was going on. He noted how this was “an unthinkable, devastating” incident that they were going through. It was actually described as “catastrophic” and has been terrifying for all involved.
Governor of Arizona Katie Hobbs declared that there was a state of emergency in Gila County. She added that $200K has been allocated for rescue and recovery efforts, adding:
“I’m heartbroken by the devastation in Gila County, my thoughts are with the families who have lost loved ones and the residents whose lives have been impacted.”
The government officials seemed very concerned for the state, as well as the counties and cities that have been severely impacted. To add to this, around one thousand propane tanks were swept away in the flooding. This has added to the severity of the situation, and the hope is that everyone will continue to evacuate properly.
Aside from the Arizona deaths that currently total four, there is more devastation awaiting. Many residents may be missing due to the flash floods, which is another massive concern. There will need to be enhanced rescue efforts to ensure that everyone is found, alive or deceased, for the peace of the families. Right now, everything that needs to be done to find the missing is occurring. Of course, this remains a scary and sensitive situation.

Flash floods are nothing new, but they can still rock a community to the core. Right now, followers of the Arizona floods are praying for all who were impacted and hope for a safe recovery.
