A supermarket shopper makes a light-footed dash back to her vehicle as a storm cell opened up on the northeast side of town on July 10, 2017, north of Tucson, Ariz.

After weeks of above average temperatures and very dry conditions, one of the longest no measurable rain streaks on record for Tucson is likely coming to an end today.

Expect very light showers to spread across southeast Arizona this morning. Those showers will increase in coverage and intensity this afternoon and evening, becoming widespread rain tonight and ending from west-to-east in the early morning hours of Saturday.

This will have been the sixth longest dry stretch on record, with no measurable rainfall since 106 days ago, on March 1.
