Think the weathermen have it right and we're going to get dumped on like CA did this whole week OR is it going to be a sprinkle borefest and when I wake up it'll all be gone? Starting raining where I'm at (Waddell/Loop 303) about 20 minutes ago.

I'm hoping I'll actually have to USE the 4Runner to get home tomorrow after work.

don't hold your breath. it's NEVER as intense as the weather guys say it will be.

Yea, I drove my truck today just in case, but because I drove it, the sun will come out and dry up everything before the end of the day. I would like to be wrong.

Well we just got a memo into our department saying that the road will probably flooded so bad by the time our shift ends that we won't be able to leave. We'll see about that.

So are they letting people go home? If not, sounds like a setup for some kind of lawsuit.

You got a point there.

If they dont let us leave I'll just stay clocked in until we can. Haven't had OT in a loooooong time.

What is this overtime in which you speak?

I will say that Dave Munsey ( Channel 10 weather) has been exactly right on all week with this one.

Scary living on a wash right now. I went by my old house this a.m. on the way to the dentist and that retention basin at the end of the street there was just about full. Never saw it that full in the 7 years I lived there! And that was at 9. Been raining good ever since.

It's not raining down here... cloudy and windy as hell, but not much rain.

I might go wheelin on Saturday, if anyone wants to come down and wheel Chivo. Stacy's out of town, so I was gonna cut loose, and enjoy being a bachelor this weekend; doing whatever I want.

Chivo Falls will be flowin', that's for sure. Would make for a nice trip. Come down, crash. I'll bbq, and we can get drunk,

They're talking about closing down Sky Harbor. Too much wind...

Strange weather for Phoenix for sure.

Glad East Mesa is at a higher elevation. Lots of flooding alread on the west side and in Scottsdale.

The Hassyampa is RUNNING! Saw news video of that, and they've started letting water out of Granite Reef through town.

Say goodbye to McKellips Rd.

What is good news for me is the Santa Rosa wash behind my house flows north. So if Tucson isn't getting pounded then I should be fine.

Goodbye!!! Gilbert doesn't flood much, I need to drive somewhere that does. Now if Freestone Park fills up, we should see some.

My street usually floods pretty good due to the drainage ditch across the street overflowing. My house is high enough though that the water just comes up part of the driveway. I've seen the street totally underwater before though.
