KNAU Arizona Public Radio continues to integrate new audio software into both our news and classical services, resulting in some glitches. Thank you for your support and patience through this upgrade.

KNAU 88.7 is restored to full power. APS cut power to our system atop Mormon Mountain to service another radio station's electricity meter and restored it early Monday morning.

Phoenix and Tucson are ordering bars, gyms and other indoor facilities to close immediately and restaurants to offer to-go service only in an effort to slow the spread of the coronavirus. 

The mayors of Phoenix and Tucson declared a state of emergency Tuesday afternoon.

Restaurants will have until 8 p.m. to convert to drive-thru, delivery or pick-up only.

The mayor of Flagstaff was the first to make the decision with an official proclamation on Monday. 

The closures come as state health officials identified two more coronavirus cases, including the first on the Arizona portion of the Navajo reservation in Navajo County.
