Heavy rainfall near Grand Canyon displaces residents and guests, triggering evacuations


About 100 residents and hotel guests were displaced after heavy rainfall hit a small community near the Grand Canyon, according to Coconino County Sheriff’s officials.

The National Weather Service said up to 3 inches of rain fell Tuesday evening in Tusayan, a gateway community 7 miles south of the Grand Canyon National Park entrance, and floodwaters were deeper than 3 feet at some points.

Officials said no injuries were reported, but the thunderstorm caused some power outages in the Tusayan area.
