You know summer is coming in AZ when...

Per the calendar, June 15 is the start of the monsoon season so that?s when news stations and .gov agencies start their coverage/PSAs.

The season really starts after three days in a row of a dew point 55 or higher. Some are saying our cooler than average summer will delay the monsoons. We?ll see.

It’s been surprisingly cool this June here. Still mostly in the 80’s, just a few 90 plus days so far. This time last year BLM had already been closed for two weeks here because of how dry and hot it was. This year still open and the brush is still green, may be a really wet monsoon like 2021 this year.

A look at the forecast shows 100 degrees not expected till mid June, the start of monsoon. It’s gonna be a very green and wet summer.

I would think in AZ you can get free sand everywhere

Today actually starts monsoon awareness week so expect to see a bunch of related PSAs.

Our cooler temps mean a late start to monsoon season which may also mean a longer fire season.
