Monsoon 2026

August 6, 2026

By Lindy Brigham

The monsoon has not been particualry generous with rain in our neighborhood this year, but there have been enough showers in the Valley to provide some flow in the Rillito. Thursday, August 6 provided us with a nice reminder that the Rillito, is indeed a River.

Looking NorthWest, the flow is just visible in the middle of the embankmets.

August 8 – And it is all over until the next time

An excellent book on our area is “Little River”.
