PHOENIX (AP) — It didn't take much rain for a thunderstorm that blew across Phoenix to set a record.
The National Weather Service said the .01 inch of rain recorded at Sky Harbor International Airport by 7 a.m. Friday was a record for June 5 because there hadn't been any precipitation recorded previously on the date.
June is normally dry in Phoenix, but the storm with moisture from remnants of tropical storm Andres provided a bit of a change.
"We've now got #RainOnThe5thOfJune. Officially measuring 0.01" at Sky Harbor. Record broke," the weather service's office said in a Twitter post.
