And yes, I washed my car yesterday

When it rains... we run out and wipe the truck down with Cardinals' towels.

The Vortex is strong.

And, I think the vortex will be tested again later tonight... there appears to be more cells developing over Fountain Hills that should move in toward your neck o the woods later on... that is, if that vortex doesn't blow 'em out of the sky first....

Started 2 minutes before "Breaking Bad" came on, got the good stuff for about 17 minutes and then it was done. Thankful for every drop.

Very little rain, getting thunder and lightning.

The cool thing is: My new dog, Liam, seems like he could care less about it all.

He's very chill.

Small tree hit my hood. Doesn't look like any damage but I will have to evaluate in the morning

 

[desertdawg]

Getting the second wave now.

Ahwatukee getting hit by the second wave. Rain, but lots more wind now.

Nice. When my dog (RIP) was a puppy I always used to take him outside during thunderstorms to get used to it. That way you don't get a scared run-under-the bed pooch.

[Brian in Mesa]

AZCentral puts rainfall total in my area at 1.1 inches.

I believe it - had some minor flooding issues in our laundry room.

 

[DemsMyBoys]

We had 90 minute light show. Thunder. Heavy wind and rains.

Nice. Very, very nice.

Flash flood watch tonight....hopefully we get some serious storms

 

[Tyler]

Hopefully we get a storm at all. Sprinkles, wind and lightening in the distance just dont do it for me.

Granite Reef looked like a river for a short time there last night. Was pretty awesome.

Sorry to hear about your flooding.

My cat, Bailey, sat on the window sill last night and just watched all the weather action. She loved it. So much to see!

You mean Indian Bend Wash?


Thanks - it is the utility room - previous owners didn't build it right - sits at ground level.

Nope, I mean Granite Reef. The road was "flowing" last night out front of my house.

Funny how in AZ you don't know you have problems for months ... until it rains. (Had a roof leak earlier this year.)

You got it.

I know this isn't about Phoenix, but I've had like zilch for rain at my house in Albq for months...monsoon finally hit. It all came at once. Got over an inch in 45 min last night. Pretty good lightning storm too

 

[DemsMyBoys]

Got over an inch in 45 min last night.

Not good. I hope you don't have a flat roof.

 

[Jersey Girl]

Hey Mike, just saw your bucket shot on channel 3. (Had seen it before, but always nice to see it on TV.)

 

[82CardsGrad]

Another great lightening and thunder show... but, this time - no rain... at least not yet...
