Local Frequency - Flagstaff

Good morning, this is your Flagstaff Local Frequency for Monday, October 13th, 2025.

We're waking up to some intense weather activity across northern Arizona. The National Weather Service issued a tornado warning for Coconino County last evening that lasted until 7:45 PM, reminding us that these storms are bringing more than just rain. Flagstaff has been experiencing several consecutive days of heavy rainfall, which is quite unusual for our high desert city. While we're accustomed to snow, this extended period of soaking rain has residents both surprised and concerned.

City crews have been working around the clock to keep our roads clear and neighborhoods safe. The underpass along Route 66 filled with so much water that ADOT had to temporarily close it, and workers eventually brought in a front-end loader to scoop water away. If you live near areas prone to flooding, especially around the burn scar from the 2019 Museum Fire, the city is offering free sandbags at Thorpe Park. Just bring your own shovel and fill them yourself.

Speaking of Thorpe Park, if you're curious about the history behind its name, there's a lunchtime lecture today at the Riordan Mansion State Historic Park at 12:15 PM exploring the story of who Thorpe was and why the park bears that name.

For those looking for adventure despite the wet weather, the Flagstaff Fiasco Amazing Race and Tour kicks off this afternoon at 1 PM starting from East Aspen Avenue. It's a great way to explore the city in a fun, competitive format.

Looking ahead to the holiday season, the North Pole Experience announced they're celebrating their 17th year and have welcomed over 750,000 guests since opening. With 240,000 dollars in new upgrades this season, the immersive Christmas attraction runs from November 15th through December 24th. Tickets range from 52 to 76 dollars, and they do sell out annually, so early reservations are recommended.

The NAU women's golf team is competing in the NMSU Golf Iconic Classic in Las Cruces, New Mexico through October 15th, representing Flagstaff in a 19-team field.

As we navigate these stormy conditions, remember to avoid flooded roadways and stay weather aware. The Rio de Flag Flood Control Project is working to redirect water and protect our neighborhoods, but with more rain in the forecast, vigilance remains important.

Thankfully, no injuries were reported, but the motive remains unknown, and suspects have not yet been identified. The investigation is ongoing, and the police are working to secure the area and gather more information.

Good morning, this is your Flagstaff Local Frequency for Thursday, October 9th, 2025.

Flagstaff is waking up to cooler mountain breezes, the unmistakable hint of fall in the air, and a busy day for locals and visitors alike. As a sub-tropical moisture system moves through northern Arizona, the National Weather Service has issued a flood watch beginning this afternoon and stretching through Saturday evening. That means some roads and low-water crossings may get washed out by heavy rainfall, so folks are advised to drive cautiously and keep an eye on local updates. Remember, a little extra planning can keep your day safe and enjoyable.

Despite the forecast, the city’s energy is high as autumn colors start to paint the canyons and streets. For those eager to see Flagstaff in its fall glory, outdoor events haven't slowed. At Northern Arizona University, the Wind Symphony’s “The Big Blue Marble” concert is happening tonight at Ardrey Memorial Auditorium. The show starts at 7:30 PM with a lineup of talented conductors and musicians, offering a musical journey that’s perfect for the season. Over at the Rolle Activity Center, NAU’s women’s volleyball team will host Portland State at 6:30 PM. The Lumberjacks are chasing a comeback, so expect a lively atmosphere as local athletes go head-to-head in Big Sky Conference play.

If you’d rather get outdoors, leaf peeping is still going strong, with aspen groves turning gold across Flagstaff and Oak Creek Canyon. A local day trip lets you soak in those vibrant colors—just pack rain gear and stick to paved trails if showers roll in. For an artsy afternoon, the Flagstaff Plein Air Photography Festival runs through October 19th, encouraging shutterbugs to capture autumn’s beauty. Local markets are also open: the Community Farmer’s Market continues at City Hall Plaza every Sunday until October 26th, while the Urban Flea Market is set for October 25th, offering unique finds and community connection.

Looking ahead, city offices will be closed on Indigenous Peoples Day, October 13th, but Flagstaff will celebrate with an event at the Elks Lodge from 9 AM to 2 PM. The program features presentations, cultural performances, and a chance to honor Indigenous leadership. Residents are invited to join the festivities and experience the region’s rich heritage.

There’s also excitement at Fort Tuthill County Park, home to Pepsi Amphitheater’s outdoor concerts. Locals have been braving the elements—from rain to even early snow flurries—to enjoy music, local foods, and Flagstaff’s festive spirit.

Whether you’re cheering on home teams, shopping local, or chasing autumn scenery, Flagstaff brings together the best of the season, even when the weather offers up a little drama. So pack your umbrella, grab your fall jacket, and make the most of today’s events, connections, and local color.

Let’s jump right into what’s happening in and around Flagstaff today. We begin with a priority alert: there is an ongoing investigation following the discovery of a dead body behind a Flagstaff home. Authorities are actively looking into the cause and are asking anyone with information to contact the local hotline. Meanwhile, commuters should plan around roadwork—6th Avenue is now closed for the next month while crews work on important storm drain installation. Expect some detours on your daily routes, and give yourself a little extra time to get where you’re going.

After work or school, there’s no shortage of activities to unwind and have some fun. Tonight at The Museum Club, get your boots on for Country Swing dance lessons with Meghan starting at six thirty.

Good morning, this is your Flagstaff Local Frequency for Monday, October 6th, 2025.

Here in Flagstaff, a brisk autumn chill is greeting us as the leaves tip into full gold and crimson across the neighborhoods. If you’re looking to soak up that crisp mountain air, consider starting your morning with a historic walking tour, running through October 18th. It’s a great way to connect with Flagstaff’s storied past and see some brilliant fall colors along the way.

Switching gears to local news, authorities responded to a report of a juvenile with a firearm at Summit High last Thursday, which escalated to a foot chase near Flagstaff Mall.

Looking ahead, the Pepsi Amphitheater is prepping for a big lineup this October at Fort Tuthill County Park.

In sports, the NAU Lumberjacks women’s soccer squad had a tough match against Northern Colorado yesterday, dropping their first Big Sky Conference loss this season. The Jacks head to Portland State for their next contest on Thursday, so keep tabs online if you want to cheer them on remotely.

And on the business front, Flagstaff’s own W. L. Gore & Associates has just inked a major international distribution agreement for their new biliary stent device, signaling a positive impact for jobs and medical innovation here at home. Major partnerships like this keep Flagstaff’s tech sector buzzing.

Finally, jot down October 18th for the last chance at this season’s Downtown Farmers Market, where local pumpkins, apples, and fall produce are absolutely in peak form. Stop by for morning coffee, pastries, and all the autumn produce you could want.

If you’re still riding high from Saturday’s energy at the J. Lawrence Walkup Skydome, you know it was a dramatic day for football. NAU Lumberjacks kicked off strong with Seth Cromwell charging into the end zone, capping a drive that had fans already on their feet. But lightning struck—almost literally—when Taco Dowler of Montana State turned a punt return into a 90-yard sprint for the record books. The Bobcats rode that momentum to hand the Lumberjacks a 34-10 defeat, ending NAU’s four-game win streak. Even with the loss, NAU remains an exciting team to watch, and you can expect plenty more drama on the field this season. Fans are gathering at local cafes to dissect the game and speculate on the playoffs, so you’re bound to find lively conversation around town.

For those looking for a taste of fall and a bit of Bavarian flair, Flagstaff Oktoberfest once again brought all the color and flavor to Wheeler Park on Saturday. If you missed the bratwurst, stein-holding contest, or the polka music yesterday, don’t fret—the spirit of Oktoberfest lingers in downtown as local restaurants and brewpubs serve up autumnal favorites all week. This annual festival is more than just fun; over the years, it’s raised nearly two hundred thousand dollars for local nonprofits. So when you grab that pumpkin ale or pretzel today, you’re supporting Flagstaff in more ways than one.

Looking for things to do? There are plenty of options to fill your Sunday. The NAU Dance Team Clinic kicks off at nine over at the Rolle Activity Center—a great chance to see local talent in action or even join in if you’ve got some dance moves to share. Down the street, Heart and Soul Sanctuary hosts a tarot workshop at noon for those feeling metaphysical.
