Maximum Temperatures Yesterday


The above is from the PSU Ewall and shows the maximum temperatures yesterday over northern Mexico and the Southwest US. High temperatures around Cabo Corrientes on the Pacific coast were more than 20 F cooler than those recorded in the low elevations of the Sonoran Desert. Graphic shows nicely the extent and intensity of the differential thermal forcing that is in play this time of the year. The 103 F shown for Tucson is the high at DM AFB, while the high at the airport was 105 F. Tucson has now had a string of 18 days with the high temperature over 100 F. Shown below is the lighthouse at Cabo Corrientes.
