Monsoons can get crazy in AZ because when the street and such were built, people didn't realize it does rain here, so the drainage system is non-existent and almost every street flodds. Also, because of the "stupid motorist" law, if emergency people have to pull you & your car out of a wash that floods, you'll be required to pay for the rescue

. Harsh I know, but people should read the signs. Monsoons can be really nice, and the electrical storms we have are amazing

. Just be careful. I have lived in Tucson my whole life, and although it's nice and comfortable (with all my friends here and all) I do want to move. I don't think there's enough to do here, so I'd like to move to a bigger city, but not Phoenix cause it's even hotter there and there still isn't a beach. People moving to Tucson though, have to be careful. It's kind of like a black hole. Once you're here, it's very dificult to leave, and if you do make it out, a lot of people tend to come back. Not that it's all bad though. There are some very nice parts about it, it just gets old after 22 years.
