when is the monsoon rains over in the high country? been checking rain every day just not sure how bad the storms get.

 

Generally, the monsoons last until early to mid-September (at least in the SW part of the state). The monsoon activity usually peaks in early August -- but that can vary significantly from year to year. I do lots of climbing and hiking and this time of the year you generally need to be off the peak by noon as the daily afternoon t-storms fire up. I have seen summers where the monsoon activity wanes in late-August, but it's hard to predict. This week we have been getting pounded. SJ Ron
