Another tropical storm of interest

I have been away on a trip to McCall, Idaho. Many wildfires burning up there with little ventilation, and skies and the air were filled with smoke on several days. Looks like things may be improving with the strong systems now affecting the northwest. I can report that all large trout in the streams around McCall easily avoided me.

I returned to find a bit of rain in the gauge, 0.04", from the unsettled weather of the last several days around Tucson.

There is another Tropical Storm, Lane, in the east Pacific and NHC forecasts it to become a hurricane and to take a track similar to John. This brings it up to the tip of Baja in about five days. However, all forecasts related to John were very poor and the GFS eventually did best with its track. The GFS is forecasting the storm northward, so we'll see how it does with this one.
