The monsoon season, June 15 through Sept. 30, was a bit wetter than average, with precipitation making its way across southeastern Arizona a few weeks earlier than is typical. The airport reported 6.63 inches, while the average, according to the Tucson National Weather Service, is 6.08 inches.
June was the month of heat and rain. Tucson experienced its first round of tropical storm moisture from Andres at the beginning of June, followed by a second round from the remnants of Hurricane Blanca.
June went out with a bang, with several rounds of large hail pelting Tucson on the 30th, followed by a severe storm that prompted the Tucson National Weather Service to issue the first tornado warning since 2011.
It was the fourth-hottest June on record, with 13 straight days of highs above 105 degrees.
