Heavy rain in Sierra Vista area and Carr Canyon waterfall

The heaviest rain fell from the center of Sierra Vista to south of Tombstone. The radar data shows 1" to 1.5" of rainfall in the area. At my home, received 0.56" of rain and had street flooding due to a long period of rainy and cool weather. I'm always happy to see raining in this area, and much more if I can see waterfall in Carr Canyon! Just I hope nobody get in big trouble in this wet weather. Everyone stay away from running water, specially on Moson Road.

Overcast in morning with low level cloud in Huachuca Mountains.


Carr Canyon creek near parking lot. I met a gentleman there who told me the road condition and I was able to get closer to the waterfall. If he did not tell me that, I would miss the best view of today. I don't know neither his name and he might visit my blog, just I wanted to tell him "Thank you!".
