I remember a funny story from there. Last time I was out there for a spell, hurricane/tropical storm was going to hit Mexico. They had mentioned on the news about flash flooding, and higher then normal winds, as we'd feel a tiny part of the storm in Tucson. No warnings, watches, or anything. Later that night I get a frantic knock on my door. One of the neighbors needed to tell me I should head to higher ground as a hurricane was coming, and people needed to be warned. I believe I looked at him, laughed, an went back to sleep.
I don't think I'll ever worry about a hurricane hitting Tucson. The big thing of mountains surrounding it for one, an the lack of you know..water to fuel it for 2. I still get a laugh when I think of that guy. Bless his little heart.
An AZ gets....fires, an other weird weather. I'll keep the hurricanes over wildfires any day. Wildfires suck more then a hurricane does.
Watch out for hurricanes, Arizona. The storm surge will be deadly.
Oh, hey look..pictures.
