Record Rainfall, Canal Overflowing and Flooding

Today is a record breaking day in Phoenix. 

Downtown Phoenix, at Sky Harbor, received over 3.21" of rain! 

Mesa, has received over 4".  At our house our rain guage currently reads 2.96".

Below are pictures I took from the news this morning

to document the rain totals around the valley.

 

This is Emerald Park in front of our house. 

This is the fullest/highest we've ever seen the water!

This picture was taken by Stacy Riggs.  

I'm not sure where it was taken, but there's a lot of water.

This picture I took from Channel 15 News.  

Again, not sure where, but it looks like it was on the freeway.

These pictures I got off a friend's Facebook, Bill K Washburn.
