A Flood Watch remains in effect through this evening for northern and central Arizona, while western and northwestern New Mexico and southeastern Utah may also experience heavy rainfall and flooding.
Communities that may be impacted include Kayenta, Shonto, Kaibito, Tuba City, Chinle, Canyon de Chelly, Ganado, Klagetoh, Dilkon, Wide Ruins, Fort Defiance, Window Rock, Keams Canyon, Kykotsmovi, Navajo National Monument and surrounding areas.
Residents are urged to avoid flooded roads, washes and low-water crossings. Never attempt to drive or walk through floodwaters. Some Chapter Houses and Navajo Nation offices may also be closed or operating on modified schedules due to weather and road conditions.
We extend our appreciation to our first responders, Navajo Division of Transportation crews, Chapter officials and staff, emergency management personnel, law enforcement, utility crews, and neighboring counties and agencies assisting our communities during these conditions.
Please continue to check on elders, relatives, neighbors and those living in rural or isolated areas who may need assistance. Chapters have emergency resources available to respond to immediate community needs and should continue coordinating with NDEM.
The Navajo Nation will continue monitoring weather and road conditions and will keep the public updated as new warnings, closures and information become available. ... See MoreSee Less
