The eastern half of Arizona may experience light to steady showers and isolated thunderstorms on Friday, but these are not expected to cause significant flooding due to their spotty and quick-moving nature. The western half of the state will remain dry. The expiration of flood warnings along the Verde, Salt, and Gila rivers in Maricopa County signals a reduced risk of flooding. However, residents are advised to remain cautious near water bodies and avoid flooded areas. The warm and dry conditions over the weekend will help the region recover from last week’s flooding.
