 Arizona declares state of emergency after powerful microburst causes widespread damage

A state of emergency has been declared in Tempe, Arizona, as crews continue to recover from a powerful microburst that caused widespread destruction across hundreds of homes and businesses. The storm swept through the city and Maricopa County on Monday, with winds estimated at 80-90 mph, uprooting trees, ripping roofs off buildings, and tossing mobile homes from their foundations.

Tempe Mayor Corey Woods described the scene as devastating, noting the loss of over 500 trees in city parks alone and emphasizing that no fatalities occurred despite the violent conditions. Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs issued an emergency declaration for Maricopa and neighboring Gila County, releasing $200,000 in immediate funds and mobilizing state resources to aid recovery. Officials report more than 750 homes and 70 small businesses sustained damage, and over 130 residents have been displaced. The storm, fueled by remnants of Tropical Storm Raymond, also caused widespread power outages, leaving more than 34,000 people without electricity. Emergency responders faced overwhelming demand, with police receiving 369 calls in a single hour and fire crews responding to 170 calls over three hours. State officials say the next step is to seek federal assistance to support ongoing relief efforts.
