Have you been a bit disappointed lately with the lack of rain in midtown Tucson?
Would you belive me if I told you that this monsoon has been epic so far? Well it has, and I’ve got the proof.
As of today, Tucson (at the airport where records are kept) is way above average for July rain.
In fact we are at double in the rain department.
And if this wasn’t enough to wash away any doubt – check out the July rain in Douglas:
Nearly 700% of average for July.
So despite what you may consider a slow start to the monsoon, we are actually faring quite well.
I expect a bit of a downturn in rain chances from Friday through the weekend, but some signs are indicating another uptick as we head into the middle of next week.
Hopefully the daily round of storms works its way a bit farther to the north.
Your explanation doesn’t help….we are all still disappointed with the lack of rain this monsoon season..lots of hype, little action…in regards to the double the rain at the airport….. to quote George Carlin “Nobody lives at the airport…..” : )
