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.

Off-Topic: Gas Prices
Above is an interesting graph that I came across the other day. Shows that regardless of local or regional prices in the U.S., gas prices here and in Europe essentially track along similar trends. Prices are of course much higher in Europe (high taxes in Europe keep prices artificially high, or minimal taxes in U.S. keep prices artificially low). More on this later, since the weather is not very exciting in the Southwest, although a Pacific system will kick across the Great Basin tomorrow.
