Every summer, some Lake Havasu City locals hope for monsoon storms to roll through to bring the rain to the desert. Thursday evening, they got their wish.
At 4:15 p.m., a small cell dropped rain over Crossman’s Peak and The Foothills. Then around 5 p.m., a shelf cloud rolled into the Lake Havasu City area. The temperature was 100 degrees.

According to Las Vegas National Weather Service, the Lake Havasu Airport had a reading of 59 mph wind gusts at 5:30 p.m. and at 5:55 p.m., the temperature had dropped to 75 degrees.
Trees were reported down on McCulloch Boulevard, and minor flooding at downtown intersections because of the storm.
There is another chance for a storm in Lake Havasu around 10 p.m., tonight with potential wind gusts up to 60 mph.
