PHOENIX — Tuesday night's storms brought flooding, damage, and power outages to swaths of the Valley, but we're not out of the woods yet.
With lots of humidity still in the air, storm chances are going to carry over into Wednesday. Keep an eye out for storm threats such as heavy rainfall, lightning, gusty winds and hail.
The storms even forced the closure of Zaharis Elementary School in Mesa on Wednesday. Officials said the campus won't reopen until Tuesday, Sept. 19 due to roof damage. The school may reopen sooner depending how soon the repairs can be completed.
