美国亚利桑那州大峡谷地区周六发生山洪灾害，造成1人死亡、约15人失踪或无法联系1。超过60名游客被直升机从峡谷深处撤离1。遇难者系46岁男性，遗体在周日晚间于科罗拉多河的Crystal Rapids附近被发现1。山洪发生在Bright Angel Creek1。
灾情波及公园基础设施和居民生活。供水管线遭山洪冲毁，影响年均600万游客和约1600名村民1。公园随即启动紧急限水措施，禁止游客在旅馆和宾馆过夜，并要求长期居民节约用水1。当前正在进行的供水管线改造项目投资2.08亿美元，2023年启动，预计明年完成1。
国家气象局发布洪水预警，警告由于土壤饱和和季风水汽充沛，山洪风险将持续至周一1。此外，德州圣安东尼奥因两日前暴风雨导致2人溺水身亡1。
A flash flood at Grand Canyon National Park on Saturday killed one person and left approximately 15 others missing or unaccounted for, prompting emergency measures across the scenic destination.1 The body of a 46-year-old man was discovered Sunday evening near Crystal Rapids along the Colorado River.1 More than 60 visitors were evacuated by helicopter from the canyon depths.1
The flooding on Bright Angel Creek destroyed a critical water pipeline that serves the park's roughly 6 million annual visitors and approximately 1,600 residents.1 The park has implemented emergency water restrictions and prohibited overnight stays in hotels and accommodations as a precautionary measure.1 Long-term residents have been asked to conserve water supplies while repairs continue.1 A pipeline replacement project, initiated in 2023 at a cost of $208 million, is expected to be completed next year.1
The National Weather Service warned that flooding risks would persist through Monday due to saturated soil conditions and abundant monsoon moisture.1 The park continues issuing flood warnings as additional storms approach the region.1 In a separate incident, two people drowned in San Antonio, Texas, following severe storms that occurred two days prior.1
