Getting some much needed rain here. Been raining for a good 2 hours straight. Good soaking rain. Definitely help our drought situation. Its actually pretty cool outside as well.
9:02 pm. Still raining and 60 degrees.
Glad to hear you're getting rain!

Summer in Southern Arizona...every day tops out well over a hundred degrees with lots of sunshine. It's also the time of year when the monsoons hit and we get rain and overcast days. The humidity is also higher than normal (which isn't really that high compared with other areas of the country). We really haven't gotten a lot of rain, but when it does rain, it comes down in buckets and causes flooding. Sometimes roads can be completely flooded out, causing drivers to find another way to get to where they're going. It can be quite frightening actually!
I'll be glad when the monsoons leave and we return to uneventful weather! Funny, though, but even after only a couple days of overcast skies and I miss the sun! It's the rare day that the sun doesn't appear around here!
