Since last Sunday, businesses in Amado, Arizona have been picking up the pieces after severe storms brought several inches of water for a span of hours. 

One of the many business owners cleaning up the damage, David Sagers, says he got a couple feet of rain inside of his automotive shop. 

"Rolled a bunch of the equipment out and started cleaning the equipment up and are now trying to assess how much damage we have on everything." 

The strong currents also smashed the cars of several customers. Sagers says the majority are totalled. 

"When I got here I could see that the water had passed through here and just kind of pushed the cars all together."

While business owners in Amado as well as the people who live there try to recover from the damage, they hope Southern Arizona is officially done with monsoon.
