Dangerous flooding may unfold in southwestern US as Newton threatens 2 months’ worth of rain in hours
(Worthy News) – Significant flooding may develop across the southwestern United States through Wednesday as Newton fuels soaking rain across the region.
Newton slammed into Baja California as a Category 1 hurricane early Tuesday morning. Despite weakening, the system will send a surge of torrential rain into the Southwest through Wednesday night.
On Wednesday, a organized swath of heavy, flooding rainfall will arrive across southeastern Arizona. Phoenix will be located along the northwest periphery of the heavy rain, as the core of the steady rain will target areas farther east across southeastern Arizona, including Tucson. [ Source ]
