Love monsoon weather. We made sure we bought a house that the water drains away from. That being said, we are straddled by two arroyos. It’s happy time around here, a nice respite from the summer heat and dryness.
I feel for the people who are trapped. I hope they are doing okay and nothing icky comes floating by.
Exactly why they have canals out there.
I lived in Mesa in ‘85 ... we had a canal behind our house. Those monsoons were a very welcome site late in the afternoon when the heat was at it’s worst.
I was trapped earlier today, well not in the flood but up at Happy Valley where I couldnt leave as pretty much all of roads near where I live were washed out.
This Monsoon has been something else this year, it has felt more like Houston, a bit less humid, but it has just been sticky and muggy half the time. I am scared of Allergy season this year.
Same here in Cochise. It rained pretty good here.
