I don't know about you guys - but I'm really wanting to see some rain.

Every day is a new record at this point.

I saw that one of the local news stations is holding a contest for people to guess when it will rain (based on rainfall at Skyharbor Airport) - although I don't remember which station.

So, make your call. When do you think it will rain? Name the Month and day - we'll see who comes closest.

No prize - just the satisfaction of knowing you have the power to predict the weather accurately. Which could be turned into a TV gig - you never know.

Don't we have to get JW63 and AZHeat together on the same hike in order for it to rain Question Seems like we have to make it soon

Boy do I feel sorry for you guys....NOT! It's always raining here....or snowing. But my guess for rain in Arizona is Feb. 19th...don't know why...my daughter is the real guesser.

I predict a 'freak storm' this weekend just in time for the GHOTM.

Isn't that how it went almost all of last year? No, I'm serious, no rain in the forcast, but put all of us together for a GHOTM and voila...

Hooli getting as far away from us as possible always helps too... you old, dry, withered fart...

Hey Hey Hey what are you trying to do to us ??? Shush You! But your right, that was true last year, I remember it raining on most of the hikes or campouts at some point . Lets just have rain when we have to be working OK Yes Well that's unrealistic and it is nice to walk and be in the rain sometimes just not every time.

I'm going to guess that it'll be March 8th for recordable rain in Phoenix. Hopefully much sooner everywhere else.
