The streak ended just one day shy of tying the current record of 160 days without measurable rain in Phoenix, a record set in 1972. And it's still dry. With the .01 of an inch recorded Wednesday, Phoenix is still 2.68 inches below average since Oct. 1, the start of the water year.

We had nine days of trace rainfall during the streak, but none were measurable. Today was the last day we were expecting rainfall for the foreseeable future, so consider that 0.1"

The rainy and cloudy conditions are expected to last into Wednesday night, with Wednesday morning seeing a 40% chance of rain.
