Rain in Phoenix! Our 159-day dry streak is finally over.

The streak ended just one day shy of tying the current record of 160 days without measurable rain in Phoenix, a record set in 1972. And it's still dry. With the .01 of an inch recorded Wednesday, Phoenix is still 2.68 inches below average since Oct. 1, the start of the water year.
