The Brief

PHOENIX - A Phoenix ice rink was badly damaged after the storms on Sept. 27.

What we know:

The AZ Ice Arcadia rink in Central Phoenix is closed as officials scramble to make repairs, forcing games and practices to be put on hold.

The rink, located near the corner of 38th Street and Thomas Road , took a serious shot from Mother Nature Saturday night when strong winds damaged the building and started a fire.

It could be weeks before the building is fully repaired.

Dig deeper:

Cleanup continues inside the arena after the strong storm caused serious damage to the big concrete building.

"The first thing there was an explosion that happened in the building, but it ended up being the roof being torn off by the microburst in the area," said General Manager Jim Curley.
