Phoenix doesn’t really do fall colors, but many other parts of Arizona offer a cornucopia of browns, reds and yellows.

Despite the recent storms, this monsoon will still go down as one of the driest ever.

Conditions during Monday evening’s storm were perfect for a rare and stunning phenomenon to occur.

“What in the Blade Runner 2049 is happening in Phoenix?” wrote one apparently non-local social media user.

Fall is right around the corner. So is a relief from the heat – sort of.

The Valley was on track for one of the driest monsoons ever. We probably don’t have to worry about that anymore.

The first big haboob of the year started in Eloy and blew northwest to Phoenix.

In the summer in Arizona, 100 degrees is where the temperature gauge starts.

At long last, the Valley was soaked by a true thunderstorm – though some areas got more rain than others.

Phoenix is currently on track for the second-driest monsoon ever, but we could get some of that sweet sky water soon.

August in Phoenix has been blistering so far in 2025 and may very well wind up breaking records.

This July may feel like a breeze compared to its 2024 and 2023 predecessors, but it’ll still rank among the hottest ever.

The record for July 4 is 118 degrees. Thankfully, this Independence Day won’t be quite that hot.

A month ago, there were good odds of a blissfully wet monsoon season. But the latest forecast is a little less rosy.

When it’s 110 degrees, the days all blend together. But the hottest months in Phoenix history should be familiar.

Everyone knows Phoenix is hot. A better question is: Is any city in the country hotter?

The Valley hit a rainfall record for June 1 on Sunday. These areas got the best soak.

Every summer, monsoon season provides Phoenix with roughly half of its yearly rainfall – and a needed break from the heat.

Yes, it’s a dry heat. But this summer, maybe not quite as dry as it usually is.

The last two Phoenix summers have been record-breaking. This year may not continue that streak, but it’ll still be scorching.

Phoenix has broken monthly temperature records five times in the last year.
