Perhaps A Bit Of Weather This Weekend?

It has been a long while since there's been much in the way of weather here in the Southwest. The last time I measured rain in the gauge was back on the 21st of October. So far, November here is perfect, with not even a Trace of precipitation noted. Only weather worthy of comment has been the long run of days with low temperatures in the 20s and 30s (up to 10 now).

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

However, the quite cold, 500 mb trough in the Northwest (top image) is forecast to deepen over the weekend, with a piece coming across the Southwest (700 mb forecast valid noon Sunday in middle). The NAM indicates that some 700 mb moisture will reach down across southern Arizona. The NAM forecasts some precipitation in southern Arizona (60-h rain ending at 5 pm Monday in bottom image), but at this time keeps the rain out to the west of here.

At least a bit to write about finally.
