Our last measurable rain of about one-tenth of a inch happened in April. We have been in drought conditions in this part of the Southwest for over five years.

On July the 11th between 2-3am the Airport did get a trace.
From year to date (July 18, 2007): there has been .30 inches of rain at McCarron
For about 3 hours there was 0.08 inches on April 16
It rained .14 inch on Feb 13. Most of the rain happen in the 10 pm hour, but there was some an hour before
Last time I can see that it rained close to an inch in a day was Oct 18, 2005 and it rain nearly a half an inch the day before.

It was not that long ago that it flooded in Las Vegas.
I'll see if I can find the date.

It's been quite a while, but flash-flood season is starting soon!
