PHOENIX<\/strong> – Monsoon storms keep rolling into the Phoenix area, with the latest storms hitting parts of the Phoenix area overnight.<\/p>\n The storm tore through a residential retirement community in north Phoenix, leaving a wall in complete shambles, as well as damaging numerous roofs.<\/p>\n What they’re saying:<\/p>\n “It looks like a war zone, actually. I\u2019ve never seen anything like it,” said Alexander Krapibain. “Sounded like a hurricane.”<\/p>\n The whipping wind tore through the community, which is located near Bell Road and 3rd Avenue.<\/p>\n “All of a sudden, we heard a bunch of boom-booms, and thought the roof was going to cave in,” Krapibain said.<\/p>\n Local perspective:<\/p>\n Neighbors like Krapibain woke up to see wood, metal and shrapnel scattered through the cul-de-sac.<\/p>\n “At 10:30 p.m., I was lying on the bed and suddenly I hear a big noise,” one resident said. “I don\u2019t know what was going on, but I came out and saw the backyard roof flying all over the place.”<\/p>\n The storm\u2019s strength uprooted trees, smashed shingles and bent light posts.<\/p>\n “Everything is wet. Just soaked,” said Matthew Miller.<\/p>\n The storm also ruined Miller\u2019s roof. His neighbors helped rescue his golden retriever, Junior.<\/p>\n “His neighbor called him and said, ‘I think your roof is blowing down the street,’ so they called me and I came over, and sure enough, that was his roof,” one neighbor said. “That\u2019s all his stuff sitting out there on the front. So then I brought the dog home with me.”<\/p>\n What’s next:<\/p>\n Now, looking at the rubble of his home, Miller says he doesn\u2019t know what he\u2019ll do next.<\/p>\n “We have a lot going on now, and for this to happen is adding on more and more torture in our lives,” Miller said.<\/p>\n Crews are working throughout the day to clean up the mess and will be in the area throughout the afternoon.<\/p>\n Monsoons<\/a>North Phoenix<\/a>News<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"PHOENIX – Monsoon storms keep rolling into the Phoenix area, with the latest storms hitting parts of the…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":181094,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5131],"tags":[5229,5643,1587,1588,60242,50,57588,1589,67,586,132,5230,68,2969,313],"class_list":{"0":"post-181093","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-phoenix","8":"tag-america","9":"tag-arizona","10":"tag-az","11":"tag-maricopa-county","12":"tag-monsoons","13":"tag-news","14":"tag-north-phx","15":"tag-phoenix","16":"tag-united-states","17":"tag-united-states-of-america","18":"tag-unitedstates","19":"tag-unitedstatesofamerica","20":"tag-us","21":"tag-usa","22":"tag-weather"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115103615162444826","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/181093","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=181093"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/181093\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/181094"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=181093"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=181093"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=181093"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
