One Last Note
then I will be finished with this thread. The monsoon was declared on the 11th based upon three of the 5 criteria that I mentioned in my article on my homepage with the most important one being the windshift. The dewpoint was met primarily because rain from the high based boomers moistened up the lower levels enough and long enough for the dewpoint averages to stay up. The other two criteria were met yesterday when we got our temperature break and the monsoon moisture boundary at 850mb moved over us. Thus all five of my criteria were met within my revised forecast period-not enough to save me from a bust on it but enough to show that I was on the right track. At any rate, everything is in place now and we just need to have the atmosphere take advantage of it-which it did not do for us yesterday.

When Will Phoenix Declare the Monsoon?
Well Steve - your 'Soon has begun but Azsky and myself are still on Monsoon Watch.
We can't really close this thread until NWS declares the Rain Games Open.
(You'll let us keep it open for a bit won't you?)
Azsky - do you know of any published documentation where NWS Phx
has officially done so yet? (The media doesn't count...)
================= Semi-END =================

WFO Homepage...seems they have renamed our annual right of passage..it is now..get this:
'Arizona Monsoon'!!ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Newsflash...no such beast.It's
the Mexican Monsoon...period!
What nonsense.Why does one even bother?

Don't you know Arizwx that once one gets more than
60 miles north of the Mexican border, it becomes the "Arizona Monsoon"?
Aslkahuna gets to claim 'Mexican Monsoon' as he's on the northern fringe of
that particular feature so vividly displayed with MCCs, MCSs, TVSs, CG, etc.
etc..... You yourself are in a Transition Zone. We here in ZoniLand have the
"Arizona Monsoon" which you know is vastly different than either yours or
SteveB's. Ours are orange, come in on a curve photographed by chopper
pilots and blow sideways so we need to pull off the highways. We don't
use windshield wipers. Yours are a bit different.
In any case, "Ours" haven't been declared yet. Azskyman is somwhat
more optimistic about tomorrow. I'll have to read the lastest progs
out of Phx....you know - the "Arizona Monsoon" progs....

So far the Az/Mex monsoon has been a huge disappointment for us up here, normal rainfall to date, 20 July should be 6.25", so far, .45".........a far cry from normal BUT.........everything is starting to look a *llitle bit more optimistic* and YES.........I will EAT MY HAT.....send over the El Pato, La Victoria *HOT* salsa.....a 4X Beaver Stetson tastes better with the salsa "LOL!"

Well I DID Say
that I was leaving the thread since the monsoon was here for us now, but I see we have a matter of semantics here. Let me quote from the opening sentence of a paper entitled "The North American Monsoon" by David K. Adams and Andrew C. Comrie of the University of Arizona which was published in the AMS Bulletin in 1997. It says " The North American monsoon, variously known as the Southwest United States monsoon, the
Mexican monsoon, or the Arizona monsoon, ..." So we're ALL right!

Well, I Do Note
that the big monsoon experiment due to take place next year in both Mexico and Arizona is called the North American Monsoon Experiment (NAME) and I would probably prefer that title for the 'soon as it encompasses the full range of its effects from Central America to Utah.

Ariz - what happened to your open mind dear?
We don't 'own' it - it just shows up (sometimes) and wreaks havoc...and
maybe gives us some rain from time to time. I'm still waiting. I do see
some nice big ECHOS incoming for us - it may be a good night.
UPDATE: IT'S HERE!!!
.... "Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night...
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

HoooooDooogies! WHATTA storm THAT WAS....Steve, it rained itself out before slidding down the mountain!
I receieved over 1.32" in just over and hour, Bill........the SECOND I hung up the phone (Bill had called JUST as this sucker hit) the hail went from BB size to marble size in a blink of an eye. Wind gusts to over 46 MPH.....VERY intense lightning like Steve said, I was watching News Channel 3 after the danger had passed, *Stormin' Royal Norman* said that with this particular cell, over 5000 strokes had been recorded. Yes indeed, that was our first gully washer of the year!
