The National Weather Service says this year’s monsoon season should arrive early and be at least as strong as last year. That’s when storms dropped almost six inches of rain in Phoenix—twice the normal average.
KTAR in Phoenix reports that the Weather Service says May’s unusual weather is a preview of what’s ahead. Most of the rain should be in the eastern third of the state, possibly concentrated in the southeast.
Last summer’s monsoon included hurricane-force winds in August that downed power poles in Phoenix, tore the roof off homes, and heavily damaged ASU’s indoor football practice facility.
