Another Long Dry Spell?

Shown above is this morning's forecast (GFS operational) for total precipitation during the coming 7 days, ending Thursday morning, March 29th. New Mexico and much of Arizona remain dry. This week's digging system at 500 mb comes south to off of southern California, but then is quickly kicked out toward the north-northeast. This gives much of California and the Great Basin another significant weather event. But leaves us in southeastern Arizona with warm and dry southwesterly winds.
