How much rain did metro Phoenix get last night? See latest rainfall totals
Recent rainfall around the Phoenix metro brought a refreshing change for some areas, but it has left others wishing for just a drop. Pockets of storms brought a glimmer of hope to those yearning for cooler temperatures, and there is still a chance for more on Aug. 15. Large portions of the Phoenix area still experienced little to no rainfall. According to meteorologist Mark O'Malley from the National Weather Service office in Phoenix, while central Phoenix only received a light drizzle, the West Valley remained completely dry. Not everyone missed out on the rain. Residents in north Scottsdale enjoyed a pretty substantial downpour, seeing as much as two inches of rain. Queen Creek saw totals ranging from an inch to an inch and a half of rain on Aug. 14, according to O'Malley. There is reason to remain hopeful for more moisture this week, a 50% chance of rain was forecasted for the afternoon of Aug. 15, giving another opportunity for scattered storms across the region, O'Malley said. No damage from the storms was reported, Capt. Dave Folio from the Scottsdale Fire Department confirmed. Although the main weather system was expected to move out after Aug. 15, there was a slight chance some isolated thunderstorms might still make an appearance on Aug. 16, O'Malley noted.
