Northern Arizona communities under flood threats

Northern Arizona communities are plagued with flooding issues and evacuations. 

Several communities in Yavapai County were under flood watch until Wednesday night. 

Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman Kristin Greene said flooding in that county remains an ongoing problem. 

"We just don’t know where the next evacuation orders are going to be set in place so please keep an eye on the Yavapai County Facebook page where we’re posting all of our evac orders," she said.

In Sedona, Oak Creek was under a river flood watch that encompassed much of the area, including Sedona itself. That watch was in place through Wednesday night.
