Heavy rain and strong winds led to widespread flooding across the Valley Thursday. Parts of the east Valley were hit with three to four inches of rain during the monsoon.
I promise, this is not a lake. This is a neighborhood near Rural & Southern that got pounded by rain last night. Unfortunately, this seeped into Eric Husen's home (who took this picture). We are live at his home seeing the damage - NEXT on #abc15. pic.twitter.com/F731fvny0D
