The long-awaited monsoon season has finally arrived in Tucson, bringing much-needed rain to the area. If your neighborhood hasn’t seen rainfall yet, prepare for change—more precipitation is on the way.

The National Weather Service officially marks June 15 as the start of this rainy season. Tradition cites June 24, known as San Juan Day, as the starting point.
