We have a rain gauge here at the office and participate in a website called Rainlog.
This active monsoon continued across much of southern Arizona, but slowed a bit across the northern half of the state. The most active period of widespread precipitation occurred mid-month as the upper level ridge pushed north across the western U. This allowed an upper level low to move from east to west across the region similar to the widespread precipitation event in July.
This upper level low in conjunction with deep moisture supported widespread heavy precipitation across Arizona between August 10th and the 15th, when RainLoggers from Douglas to Prescott reported precipitation totals ranging from 2 to 4 inches.

Have you ever wondered why it smells so good after a rainy day? The smell actually comes from the creosote bush , which has medicinal properties. The plant releases that familiar musky, earthy smell from a coating on its leaves that helps it conserve water. Tucsonans love it. It's nostalgic because it smells like monsoon season. Ironically, the Spanish name for creosote is hediondilla , which loosely translates to little stinker.
With plentiful rain comes the beautiful green vibrancy of the Sonoran Desert and the ruby red fruit of the prickly pear cactus. Tunas are used in a variety of foods and products. Water from the monsoon storms will definitely fill up those cisterns around town, so much so rainwater collectors can typically use their supplies long after the season is over.
