Mike Hardiman Reports

Blowing dust...flooding...blizzard conditions...how about beach erosion?

"Mesonet" stations at Puerto Penasco/Rocky Point have had SSE winds sustained at 30 mph+ since midnight, and gusts above 50 mph this afternoon. Both stations (one is WxUnderground, the other CEDO) are on Las Conchas, an east-west oriented barrier island. After more than one tide cycle, I imagine there is some erosion taking place.

Who needs nor'easters when we have sou'westers? I've never seen blowing dust in a nor'easter!

Plus a tornado watch across ssouthwestern Arizona!
