Yep - rained cats and dogs for quite a while. The culverts couldn’t handle the flow in the dithes alongside Hwy 92, every wash from the Mall up to Fry’s was running, and the shopping center parking lots all had ankle deep water in them after the rain passed through.

The Herald said it this morning - we are having one of the strongest Monsoons we’ve had in a decade, if not longer. We’re well ahead of our annual average rainfall for August and this one may set records. We may have to go back to the floods of ‘83 see rainfall like this.

Or, it could dry up today and we'd have no more until January! The desert is funny that way.

Pleeeeese send us your “leftovers”! Hope you don’t get flooded at your house.

My son’s MIL lives in your area. I hope she’s ok, too.

I’ve been looking at videos of the flooding...It amazes me that you all get so much rain all at once! Stay safe!
