Monsoon is set to unleash flooding rains in drought-stricken Arizona
CNN
The punishing heat wave continues in much of the West. However, for some in places in the Southwest including Arizona, the long-awaited monsoon will bring milder temperatures and rainfall.
It may just arrive a little bit too fast, raising flash flooding concerns in the area. "Afternoon and evening showers and storms are expected to be in place across the Four Corners region, and especially southern Arizona and New Mexico, as the southwest monsoon kicks into high gear," the Weather Prediction Center said Tuesday morning.More Related News
