Hate to be that guy but this is our natural monsoonal pattern. Ive lived in the southwest all my life. Its not "against the jet stream". Also, studied meteorology.
I've lived in Phoenix for 50 years and our weather is much like LV. We definitely had a regular, predictable summer of dry heat followed by "monsoons" for years and then got stuck in the hot dry part longer, fewer rains, less lightning when it did rain, fewer big dust storms--that part is ok--for years. Since June it has been cool and rainy compared to the last six years, at least.
Exactly. I've lives in Phoenix for 30+ years, and you describe it perfectly. The 90's were always HOT Junes (122 for the record high of all time in June 1990) followed by dramatic monsoons, cooler and rainy nearly every day in July & August. Then around 2005 ish, the monsoons waned and even disappeared. There was nothing, and July and August had high temps instead of the normal cool down. This summer has been fab.
