Showers Last Evening



Storm in foothills at 4:50 pm MST yesterday afternoon. This one skipped by to our east, but there were heavy showers later, around 7:00 to 7:30 pm at the house. View at bottom is looking toward Redington Pass at 5:25 am this morning.


There were only isolated CG flashes in eastern Pima County yesterday. Above plot shows flashes detected through 0833 UTC this early morning (from Atmo and Vaisala). Graphic below shows 24-hour rainfall amounts ending at 15 UTC this morning (from Univ. of Utah). Here at house we had 0.12".


GEFS plumes from 06 UTC runs (above) are for precipitation at the airport. Plumes indicate an active, showery period on the 31st of March and 1st of April. The 500 mb forecast (below, from the 06 UTC run of the GFS) indicates a deep, positively-tilted trough over the Southwest at 00 UTC on April second - next Tuesday.
