A BLOG ABOUT SOUTHWESTERN WEATHER, Welcome to the MadWeather Blog! We have two basic rules for this blog:
WEATHER FORECASTING & OBSERVING, AND OTHER RELATED TOPICS
(1) Debate and discussion should be civil.
(2) Because public discussion, regardless of the topic,
is not very effective if we don't know who is talking to whom,
MadWeather does not accept anonymous posts.

Worst Ever Wildfire Season in Arizona
The wildfire season to date has become the worst ever for Arizona, since records have been kept. The fires, all in southeast Arizona, have burned approximately 800,000 acres as of today (Thursday, 16 June). I report, with great sadness, that Art Douglas lost his new home, in Ash Canyon, in a firestorm that swept down the canyon on Tuesday. He evacuated just before the fire reached his home, saving his cat and a few personal possessions.
