The Prescott-area tornado began at 7:32 a.m., with estimated peak winds of 105 mph. It traveled about 8 miles over 14 minutes and reached an estimated width of 300 yards, uprooting and snapping trees in the Bradshaw Mountains, including near Spruce Mountain and Walker Road.

The Heber-Overgaard tornado touched down at 6:59 p.m. and remained on the ground for about 9.25 miles and 11 minutes. The Weather Service estimated peak winds of 110 mph and a width of about 350 yards. The storm damaged multiple homes and other structures and brought down trees.

A man riding a bicycle was caught in the Heber-Overgaard storm and taken to a hospital with injuries that authorities described as non-life-threatening. Fire officials received more than a dozen 911 calls in the first half-hour, reporting downed power lines, damaged propane tanks and possible people trapped. Heber-Overgaard Fire District Chief Jason Payne said fallen trees struck propane tanks and crews had to address the hazards. Most power in Overgaard was knocked out, he said.

Navajo County Sheriff David Clouse said residents near the storm’s path took shelter in closets and bathrooms. State Rep. Walt Blackman described the damage as considerable; cleanup is underway.

Arizona saw at least 15 tornado warnings during the week, according to the National Weather Service. Meteorologist Mark O’Malley, with the agency’s Phoenix office, said that is a large number for the state. The Enhanced Fujita scale classifies tornadoes from EF0 to EF5 based on estimated wind speeds and damage.
