Tucson’s Monsoon Safety Alert

Tucson’s gearing up for monsoon season with Operation Splash—city crews are clearing drains and watching the skies like hawks as Arizona braces for heavier-than-usual rain. Just 12 inches of water can sweep a car away, and 18-24 inches can flip even big trucks. Most flood deaths happen inside vehicles, especially at Arizona’s notorious low-water crossings. Officials warn: never guess water depth, always turn around at flooded roads, treat out lights like stop signs, and call 311 for downed trees. Barricades and free sandbags will be ready when storms hit—stay safe, stay smart. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
