Showers on the Catalinas


Early morning view looking north to the Catalinas, where the montain tops were also in the clouds. The two 500 mb S/Ws affecting the western US have pulled substantial moisture into Arizona - a nice change from past days this week. Could actually smell moisture when I walked this morning. Showers now obscuring parts of the mountains, where the current POPs of 20 to 30% are not high enough. Will be interesting to see what happens down at lower elevations. We'll be down NW of Sonoita this afternoon through tomorrow and there'll be an excellent chance that we'll finally see a bit of rain (probably 70% chance or greater based on my experiences down there).
