July 25th 2021, Monsoon Flooding in Tucson AZ.

[@avianswine6612]

For those of you not familiar with Tucson, I’d like to add that the Rillito River shown last, at this stage is likely 10 - 15 feet in depth. (Correct me if anyone knows for sure) Thought this adds a greater perspective of how much water is really flowing.

[@ricbonillasjr2567]

Yes, you right about this. I live in Tucson i my whole life, the Rillito river has like this.

[@TMIDiva]

Rankin Studio always has the best flash flood coverage!

[@barbaralucero2772]

Awesome! After the "NonSoon" last year, we are actually getting rain. The sad part is 2 girls were washed away and as yet, not been found. Thanks for sharing. 😍

[@russell3380]

To sad.

[@jakeweston8616]

So THATS how a flash flood looks. Its amazing how I always see the warning signs for such events but oddly enough never actually see the flooding. Great footage. Liked and subscribed.

[@christinasornbutnark1208]

I knew I’d find u uploading after I heard u guys were going to get a ton of rain. I live in Huntington Beach rarely get cool weather events.

[@PurpleRanger69]

Count ur blessings. I’ll take nasty SoCal ppl over driving through a monsoon, thunder, flash floods, and a sand storm !

[@johnstack623]

Thanks for the update. Watching from Sierra Vista.

[@drkpurple_lover]

Guys! Please tell me how rare it floods in tuscon az!

[@earljohnson2676]

When they showed the sign I know exactly where that is if you look at the white rails my sisters house was across the street on a side road one house up on left east velancia that sounds real familiar. It’s been a few years good times out there

The Santa Cruz is up to the bottom of the Trico-Mirana bridge and they closed it.

Thank you for uploading videos! I like the way you explain and show actual footages! I live in Europe /Germany and grew up in Hungary, pretty flat terrain both, but I don't really get how these 'washes' are designed or how they work. So over here you would have rivers which catch the water and have their own flood areas. Are these washes basically temporary rivers in case of rain but most of the time a dry riverbed? 🤔And did nature design them and humans just built a road across them, without thinking about a bridge? 🤔 I am interested, I wouldn't even mind a video about washes-explanation either 😄 Thank you for sharing your videos! Greetings, Judit

[@avianswine6612]

The washes or arroyos are naturally formed by the water runoff from either rain or snowmelt in the mountains. Any other time they are dry. They make for a nice place to walk a dog or go rockhounding in the city. As was shown, all the smaller washes feed into each other until they reach the Rillito (last shown). From there the flow continues to the Santa Cruz River which does hold pockets of water throughout the year. The places where water flows over the roads are mostly in rural areas. In these cases, it’s where urban sprawl has met up with rural life. Infrastructure tends to lag behind.

[@robertomon5697]

I wish we had more of an infrastructure to capture this rain. Big ideas are needed for the future.

[@bellebellebelle5485]

I wish I could be a part of it.

[@sherylchapman4168]

We need engineers more than ever. This is a terrible waste of resources.

[@markm6488]

yes, lots of possibilities.

[@gamr4367]

All these years of not having enough water in the desert, and all this just goes on to disappear! What a dang shame! When will someone come up with a plan to harvest the rainfall?

[@rankinstudio]

Very few raindrops in the west are unaccounted for.

[@martharetallick204]

I am trying to do my part. Got passive rainwater harvesting with earthworks and a 1,500-gallon cistern that's full.

[@mikesahle1193]

Thank you 🙏 great 👍 thumbs up 👍 video.great camera 🎥 person too.till then keep us the updates info ☝️

[@randydurston4777]

Thanks for sharing.

[@Madrid4ever24]

Great video thanks!

[@Tbird1549]

I was hoping for more rain today but I see the west side of Phoenix got hit hard!

[@martharetallick204]

And here comes more rain. Darn stuff won't wait until I finish building my front yard swale.

[@foxiedogitchypaws7141]

Martha, build a arc and gather up all the animals, scorpions, tarantula, rattles, .....lol

[@russell3380]

Outstanding but why a teaser? Really, Thank you much.

[@Yukonjackman1]

We really didn't get any until today even the the radar kept telling us we would lol nothing for days until Sunday in the west valley

[@RwingDsquad]

Great video!

[@rtz549]

Need small dams so it stays and doesn't all drain out and then it's like it never happened.

[@ricbonillasjr2567]

City of Tucson, Marana and Pima County are working on that for Dam

[@josephgagne4520]

Why no pool trucks getting filled with water and filling swimming pools for later use. You prayed for rain and then wasted what God gave you.

[@quickclick7356]

Flood storm earthquake fire 🙄 really heart breaking

[@brianjennings7644]

ain't nothing, til you've canoe'd down Alvernon... that's livi'n.

[@foxiedogitchypaws7141]

Going out to old Tucson with all the dips use to be fun when it's dry, not so much when it's flooded. Just regular monsoon season, Not global warming or the end.

[@rankinstudio]

Global warming is a fact. Weather and climate are not the same thing. This monsoon is far from typical.
