There's nothing in the 10 day either.
Yesterday a friend was mowing leaves. They bunched up in front of the tractor against the exhaust, and caught fire. He ran into the house and got the fire extinguisher. Fortunately it didn't spread but his tractor engine and hood were all melted. Fortunately it didn't hit his fuel tank.

Weather has more of a ten year cycle then a yearly cycle. One year is wetter then the others, another year is dryer, but when you look at the decade long amounts, it's always about the same.

Been living in the desert for 25 years and this is the first year when we had 0” of monsoon rain.

I had the same thing happen twenty years ago. I had cleaned the leaves off the front of the mower once already when one of the kids came out and said that Mom was sick and in the house. I finished a round, put the mower in its building, and went inside to check on my wife. A few minutes late I heard a boom and the phone rang. Neighbor across the street asked me if I intended to burn my building. Said she heard footsteps on the phone and, "OH ****!!!!". The boom was a gas can blowing up. Lawn mower, sweeper, three chain saws, and all kinds of yard tools were jammed in the little building. Plug three five gallon cans full of gas. Total loss.
All the neighbors came over to watch it burn. The neighbor across the street said she couldn't believe she asked me if I intended to burn my building. Next door neighbor said, "I don't know, he's done some strange things over the years".
I've never let her forget that comment.

Yesterday we had drizzling rain off and on. Today it has been snowing continuously and it’s supposed to keep up through tonight. Fortunately it’s a wet snow and won’t stick around. More is forecast for later in the week. We’re leaving in the morning to go visit the kids in Texas and Louisiana, so we go from snow to summer in a day.
