The precip, runnin' a *little* below normal BUT.....if this pattern holds like it has been, we *should* end up normal (x's his fingers!)
I live in the most prestine part of Az, in fact, if someone blindfolded you, fly you to Az, then drove you up here, you'd SWEAR you were in Colorado, Montana, Wyoming! My highs in the summer VERY rarely reach 90°, winter highs range from 10-40° with TONS O' snow, my average snowfall here at the house.....I'm at 7200' in elevation, 132" per year 
so it's probably headed your way
