Over 6 weeks remains in #Monsoon2021 & Tucson's total of 11.30" ranks as the 3rd wettest on record. The all-time record is 13.84" from 1964. Normal rainfall for the remainder of the season (Aug 15 to Sep 30) is 2.33" So based on normal rainfall the record is reachable. Hmm. #azwx pic.twitter.com/CFtMxzmihJ
