For the second Sunday in a row, the Arizona Daily Star weather page has given readers a really bad forecast! We have just had a very nice rain event across Tucson and all of eastern Pima County. I slogged out through moderate rain this mroning to bring in the paper and found that we had a "30% chance of isolated showers and rain today." The NWS had forecast 60% for last night and 70% for today yesterday afternoon - not perfect, but certainly much better than what the paper had. I suspect that the entire weather page and forecast is being supplied by AccuWeather (which obviously had much more important weather events to focus on yesterday!). If this assumption is correct, the big mystery is why KVOA Channel 4 wants their logo and meteorologists' smiling faces bannered alongside AccuWeather's rotten forecasts?
