The Southwest Is Under Flood Watch As Tropical Storm Javier Dissipates

The Southwest will see another round of storms on Wednesday as rains associated with former Tropical Storm Javier in Mexico head north. Heavy rain is expected for a second day in Tucson. The National Weather Service has issued a flash flood watch until Thursday. The storm on Tuesday made streets look like rivers. Water swallowed vehicles, including that of a local leader who was rescued through the back window of her county-issued car after it became wedged against a bridge underwater. The Tucson Fire Department says it performed eight water rescues and helped about 45 stranded motorists during a two-hour period of intense rain on Tuesday.
