Alert Type: Flash Flood Watch
Arizona Weather Force has issued a Flash Flood Watch, effective Tuesday into Wednesday, March 31st to April 1st, 2026, for the following zones;
Issued Zones: Central and Northeast half of Yavapai County … Southern Coconino County, including Flagstaff Metro … Mogollon Rim …
Date Issued: March 31, 2026 at 3:30pm local
Watch Discussion: A cold front that will zip through the region tonight into Wednesday will bring very heavy rainfall with it, which will be downplayed by a lot of sources. This heavy rainfall is expected to start around 11pm for Flagstaff to Yavapai, gaining strength over the night and going eastward through the Mogollon Rim Communities.
The most likely of the heaviest window for this will be between midnight and sunrise, and no, this isn’t an April Fools Joke.
A Flood Watch is issued here at Arizona Weather Force when conditions are favorable for heavy rainfall within short periods of time, which can lead to flash flooding.
