Scottsdale residents should prepare for heavy rain, flooded roads and fast-rising washes as multiple rounds of storms move through the area Monday night and Tuesday. The city is under a Flood Watch from midnight Monday through 9 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 29.
Heavy rain can quickly fill the Indian Bend Wash and close unbridged crossings, including Roosevelt Street, Osborn Road, Murray Lane, Oak Street at 77th Street, Medlock Drive, Starlight Way, Jackrabbit Road, Pecos Lane and the Safeway Plaza entrance north of Chaparral Road along Hayden Road. Other areas that frequently flood include Scottsdale Road north of Loop 101 and Pima Road north of Pinnacle Peak Road. Residents should watch for standing water, debris and damaged pavement throughout the city.
Stay out of flooded washes and drainage channels and keep children and pets away from moving water. Trails and parks may also close. Before visiting a city park, Scottsdale’s McDowell Sonoran Preserve or another recreation area, call the city’s information line at 480-312-3111 to check for weather-related closures.
Scottsdale Emergency Management is monitoring conditions and coordinating with Fire, Police and other partners. The city will provide updates if conditions change or warnings are issued.
Free sandbags available while supplies last.
Residents can pick up complimentary sand and bags at two self-service locations:
McKellips Police District, 7601 E. McKellips Road
Solid Waste Transfer Station, 8417 E. Union Hills Drive
Both locations are available 24 hours a day on a first-come, first-served basis. Shovels are provided, but residents must fill their own bags. There is a limit of 10 bags per household.
