Thousands of people were left in the dark as monsoon storms swept the Valley Tuesday.
Storms developed early in the afternoon and continued to build throughout the evening, continuing overnight in some areas.
The powerful monsoon storms left a trail of destruction from Litchfield Park to Mesa, and everywhere in between.

Thousands of both Salt River Project (SRP) and Arizona Public Service (APS) experienced outages into Wednesday.
Overnight, at the peak of the outages, about 32,000 customers of APS and SRP were left in the dark with no estimated time of restoration.
As of 11 a.m. Wednesday a little more than 1,000 customers were still without power. That number slowly dwindled throughout the day.
