We had a very serious downpour last night up here. Kapairowitz was totally socked in, unable to see it at all. Lots of lightning and thunder. Perfect evening for watching the rain fall and lighting hit the mesas from the porch, drinking some wine.

Thank you for the great news! Locally, we got a major soaking up near Cave Creek on Friday. I'd say two inches easily looking at my pool.

It was a hallofa flight all the way from Plainville Texas to Vegas. Serious weather.

Rain again in the valley. Let's all send good vibes that it keeps up. The ceiling has been down to my level (23rd floor here at work) for awhile this morning and I can see showers to the south. Will need more of this if we are to have a wildflower season.

The creeks are not flowing in the Supes as I expected. It seemed to soak in since it has been so long since it rained. I rode my horse around the Black Mesa Loop and then around and down to Hackberry Springs where he could finally get a good drink in a standing pool of the brown stuff. I thought there would be more than what we saw out there. I sure hope we get a couple more of these nice rains soon. There might be more in other areas of the Supes I suppose.

I was down south by Kelvin today, they had and inch and a quarter according to the rancher. No standing water but many wet spots and some fresh erosion in the washes.

Tucson had a nice downpour on Thursday. We had the trails and picnic areas all to ourselves.
Lots of Fair weather hikers!

Raining on and off here in eastern AZ the past few days, but nothing like what PageRob has reported (on HAZ) for N.AZ--no torrential downpours or flooding. Forecast is for monsoon-like weather through the Memorial Day weekend, with showers starting mainly after 11 a.m. 60% chance today, 30% chance tomorrow and Monday.

It'll be good for us up here, it'll green things up a bit and also dampen down the early summer fire danger a little bit. Maybe not much fun for all the campers, though!

or this one...........which is where I have some friends headed.....it's not looking very blue!

http://waterdata.usgs.gov/az/nwis/uv/?site_no=09402000&PARAmeter_cd=00065,00060

It took about 12 hours from the time I heard the area was flashing for it to hit or show up on these gages. I think that seems pretty consistant for what I know about the area. It's just interesting to me.....

However it appears as though it hasn't hit here yet.
