Yep, I saw baseball size hail on the news and they said it was in Phoenix. Hope no one got hurt and no Rs damaged.

wildcat66 · 10-06-2010, 11:41 AM

I saw pictures from outside of Flagstaff, lots of damage, hail, water!

Thumper · 10-06-2010, 11:50 AM

There was alot of damage around our office. I was in Parker for the day and missed it. But I was ducking and dodging all the down trees and flooded roads once I got back into town. All of our R's are covered thank goodness!

yellow bear · 10-06-2010, 11:55 AM

? flash floods ? Hope Bigwave is ok.

New Mexico Rambler · 10-06-2010, 12:35 PM

Wow! I hope Carl and Pam are OK (blueroadster06) as they were to have been in Williams Monday and Tuesday - then head down to Phoenix. Of course, they were in a rented red Hummer - so no SSRs would get damaged through their travels.

wildcat66 · 10-06-2010, 12:57 PM

and the R's too!

YellowDZH · 10-06-2010, 01:00 PM

I heard from him this morning. He didn't mention anything about hail etc. I'm sure everything must be ok there.

Well.... I head from him this evening. He said there was no damage in his subdivison but there was allot of damage around Mesa. He said large hail, high winds, power lines down, roofs off of houses, etc. Sounds like Texas storms to me.

Thumper · 10-06-2010, 06:19 PM

Carl and Pam are fine. Had lunch with them this afternoon. They did get into a little rain, but not the weather that we seen on the news. I don't think Bigwave is home so they missed the storm.

BMBLBEE · 10-06-2010, 06:40 PM

I sure hope it didn't get as far south as Tucson,

mcvett2 · 10-06-2010, 07:23 PM

We came thru Flagstaff on I-40 about 11:30 am this morning, comming from the Albquerque. A lot of wind & rain, saw Jeep pulling a trailer get fliped over by the wind in Winona AZ. east of Flag. The Camping World Store on I-40 west of Flag lost about half is stock of new camper trailer & motorhomes. Across the highway from Campers World about 30 houses were damaged. Also saw a truck a two more cars on I-40 that got rolled over. No one was injured, but two railroad workers when eight railroad cars derailed in the storm. We made it home Ok in the Vette.

I guess I had better check on my Niece. She lives near IBJEFF.

ibjeff · 10-06-2010, 10:08 PM

I will try to take pictures of crushed cars, downed trees, and powerpoles/lines/transformers on homes within blocks of me tomorrow if I have time at lunch. We were lucky in our neighborhood, but around us is a huge terrible mess! It was blowing rain so hard you could not see (70+mph) Last night more huge hail....I am so thankful we have every vehicle garaged or under carport! What a nightmare in Mesa!!!!!!

made it out ok.......we left Williams about 7:00 went down the road on I 40 and the Highway Patrol closed the highway... so we turned around and got on hwy 89 and found out later we just missed the storm... but why we left early was because the motel that we were staying at lost power so we left early ... thanks goodness,,, we are safe and good.... thanks for the thoughts and prayers

A Bad SSR · 10-07-2010, 06:09 AM

My Mother lives in Suprise AZ, and works about 45 minutes from there. Have not heard if she received anything there, will have to check in.

Thumper · 10-07-2010, 03:43 PM

Here is a picture of the hail from my parents house. Looked like little snow drifts.

azwine2 · 10-07-2010, 03:46 PM

We live in Surprise. We didn't have much wind or rain & no hail. Most of it was east of us, Glendale east to Mesa. They were hit very bad. One new car dealer reported total loss of 120 new cars that were on the lot.
Hope all Fanatics are OK

MoodyBlue · 10-07-2010, 05:14 PM

My Niece said her area did just fine. The Toyota Car Dealer that she works for didn't do so well. She said the Hail was really bad.
