Man I hope some of this trickles down to AZ. We haven't had a monsoon season in years, and that's where the vast majority of our rainfall comes from! Hopefully this hurricane will hit hard enough to make it inland and save us from this drought.
Spending the past 3 months in 116°F weather will make you say some crazy shit. I'd move if it was economically feasible.
Isn’t there a highly increased risk for floods when you get severe rainfall after a drought?
