What's up with the weather?

Looks like evening thunderstorms this week in the Mosquito/Ten Mile area. What's up with that? I'm used to seeing them in the afternoon, but this evening stuff is a real downer for those of us who were planning to sleep out this week. :cry:

Yeah, same for central Arizona!

Does that still keep us in the drought ???

And, what about the collapse of Tempe Town Lake?
That should have added a little bit of water to the system.

Sounds good to me. When you live in a desert, rain is good.

BTW, thanks for sending it this way, got 0.6" yesterday, please send more.

Yeah, but you still haven't answered my question.

I did that months ago.


Is that Rancho Del Lago, near Tucson ???

Everybody knows that the drought in Arizona has been over for several months.

I can't figure out why so many people on this Site like to complain about the weather ..
