A perfect example is Tuesday night, when over an inch of rain fell in north Phoenix but just a trace grazed the airport. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"figure-img img-fluid mx-auto d-block\" alt=\"Tuesday night rainfall\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/JHMGCXC6RVHDTLFM4CKVEZUETA.png\" width=\"980\" height=\"551\" \/>Tuesday night rainfall(3TV\/CBS 5)<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | text-start article-text\">Sky Harbor has been having some bad luck catching rainfall much of the 2025 monsoon, with only 0.49\u2033 total since June 15. That is well short of the average monsoon-to-date rainfall total of 1.71\u2033.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"figure-img img-fluid mx-auto d-block\" alt=\"Monsoon Vs Normal To Date\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/SEDYPEDVCFBM5AU2DF6MRVKSPY.png\" width=\"980\" height=\"551\" \/>Monsoon Vs Normal To Date(3TV\/CBS 5)<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | text-start article-text\">Check out how Sky Harbor compares to Glendale and Scottsdale for the monsoon-to-date totals.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"figure-img img-fluid mx-auto d-block\" alt=\"Monsoon rainfall by location\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/FJWJAHCBA5CVRJ2IJJOTT6U5ME.png\" width=\"980\" height=\"551\" \/>Monsoon rainfall by location(3TV\/CBS 5)<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | text-start article-text\">There are parts of Phoenix that are close to 2 inches for monsoon-to-date totals. So while Phoenix is \u201cofficially\u201d well below normal for monsoon rainfall this year, many nearby locations are having a completely different experience.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | text-start article-text\">See a spelling or grammatical error in our story? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.azfamily.com\/page\/send-us-your-feedback\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Please click here to report it<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | text-start article-text\">Do you have a photo or video of a breaking news story?
