A state of emergency was declared by Arizona's Governor Jan Brewer as the huge winter storm rolled across Arizona from early Thursday afternoon late into the night. Tornado watches and warnings were issued in various locations in the greater Phoenix area, and the Arizona Department of Public Safety confirmed that a tornado touched down in North Scottsdale near the Loop-101.

Mike and Ace and their friends were trying to come through this, all night.

But nothing could deter them. They made it in only 18 hours (instead of 11).

We were all glad to see them.

Thanks for coming boys.
