So far, it's not looking like a real "good Monsoon." Yes, rain has migrated from the Gulf of Mexico but, no, it hasn't been uniformly beneficial to the Great State Of Arizona. Within the past few years, maybe even dating back to the late 1990's, the monsoon's arrival and dependability has been very widely variable. All Arizonans, whether they moved to the state this year or 120 years go have opinions about "the monsoon." We all love to discuss this phenomena and we all love to ENJOY this phenomena. It's "The Arizona Way!"
Unfortunately, things don't look real good for Arizona's water situation. After enjoying a wildly successful winter snowpack, things changed. Now, it's Back To The Future, as some Climo People say. They say, "Hey, we're in a long term drought and a single year doesn't change a long term trend." Well, we beg to differ but our begging doesn't change weather!
