Storm damage widespread around Arizona; 1 fatality

As the sun emerged the in Valley Friday afternoon, residents around Arizona areas were digging out from several feet of snow while others slogged through mud and silt left in the aftermath of one of the largest winter storms to hit Arizona in more than a decade.
Authorities in Yavapai County were continuing to search for a 6-year-old boy swept away in flood waters Thursday night. The child is presumed dead and crews are searching downstream for his body.

I got this from AZ.Central.com. This storm was bad, infact, the worst winter storm since the 80s'. We got 50% of our yearly rain in one week. Feel free to comment or explain how the storm affected your week? It was horride in Mesa and Gilbert last night, especailly the thought that a tornado could rip through our neighborhood while I was sleeping.

It's not done yet, more rain as we are getting now, more snow...

I have not seen so much hype over rain, but I have never lived in the desert. This has given me a different outlook for sure. I hope everyone in this path stays safe, and my heart goes out to the family that lost a 6 year old, enroute to an ER due to him being sick....no words for that one...

I'm not sure, but it has to be between 1.5 and 4 inches

I had close to 5 FEET of snow at my house this past week! The piles on the side of my driveway are much taller...
Flagstaff was shut down yesterday. Most stores were closed, as were the freeways in and out of town. On Thursday alone we got over 19".

Here at the house we have received over 2" of rain this week, areas on the outskirts received several more inches. It appears that it snowed last night as the ground is white maybe a inch on the ground in Kingman. Scanner is on and it sounds like the snow plows are running up towards the dam on Hwy 93 and Hwy 68 in Golden Valley pretty much in all directions from Kingman.

We received almost 2 inches here in Yuma, and considering that we normally get 3 inches a year, we had some localized flooding.

School was closed early on Thursday and students sent home due to high winds and washes running. School was canceled for Friday , but we have to make it up.

Just went and checked on the Mohave County website for totals over the past five days. Look at Blake Ranch Road over 10" of rain!! looks like the rain gauge by the house is showing 3.35" so thats quite a bit.
