Summary

On October 22, 2026, a powerful storm system moved through Arizona, bringing hail, damaging winds, and the threat of tornadoes. The National Weather Service issued multiple tornado and flood watches across northern and eastern counties, including Coconino, Navajo, and Apache. Reports indicate that the storms caused property damage, including uprooted trees and damaged vehicles in Mesa, as well as flooding in parts of the Navajo Nation. While the weather system moved toward New Mexico, authorities monitored elevated water levels in the Little Colorado River and other waterways. Conditions are expected to improve, with temperatures forecast to reach the 70s by the weekend.
