The Arizona monsoon can be the most exciting time of year for weather watchers. The storms can be visually spectacular, but they can also be dangerous.

Last year when I-10 was a lake.
Or even this year when the weather didn't bother to look at the calender and started the rains earlier this month.
And I believe it was back in the late 80's when it rained for 3 days straight? Remember that one?
....anything over 110 doesn't matter. It's an oven at that point.
And BTW, I'm starting to donate 1 case of water a day to CASS. It's brutal out there for the homeless right now.

I've been in AZ for two years now. The storm we had last year was something... The one where all the flooding was on TV...
...one thing that has surprised me is the mosquito's. Somehow, I thought they would not be an issue. Damn was I wrong. I have seen the biggest mutant looking mosquitoes I have ever seen here in Phoenix. I have bought a home since then, with a pool. And now I have chiggers, or no seeums, or whatever you want to call them. And fire ants...

I lived in Tucson for a few months before I found my job and moved here. The stupid motorist law is really needed there. The washes there are crazy from what I have seen.
