   A series of storms that dumped 36 inches of snow on Flagstaff in   
   one week led to the 12th wettest January in city history,   
   according to the National Weather Service.   
      
   Flagstaff saw 4.56 inches of liquid precipitation last month —   
   2.5 inches more than the historic average dating back to 1898.   
      
   National Weather Service spokesperson David Vonderheide said   
   that the unusually wet January was due to the three snow storms   
   that swept through the city in six days.   
      
   “No doubt it was the storms that caused this wet month,”   
   Vonderheide said. “High precipitation is happening all over   
   northern Arizona.”   
      
   Flagstaff’s wet January this year was far from record-breaking.   
   The wettest month on record was 9.55 inches in 1993.   
      
   High levels of rain and snowfall were even more pronounced on   
   the Grand Canyon North Rim, where 79 inches of snowfall were   
   recorded, the sixth highest amount ever recorded.   
      
   “The North Rim has a pretty large snowpack right now so almost   
   six feet of snow in one month is a pretty big amount,”   
   Vonderheide said.   
      
   Flagstaff also experienced some strange shifts in temperature,   
   with the average high of 37 degrees being below average and the   
   average low of 22 degrees being above average.
