Still Cold Near The Rillito
Cloudless skies at sunrise today - view above is of the Catalinas at 7:30 am MST. Three cold mornings here at house with lows of 28F Sunday, 25F Monday, and 28F again this morning. Yesterday morning, when I walked along the Rillito at about 10:30 am, I was quite surprised by the winds. They were light, but were also from the west. At the same time winds at the airport were from the east-southeast with gusts of 30 to 35 mph. There was obviously some smaller scale circulation present here on the north side of Tucson. The winds never did blow very hard here yesterday.
The early WRF-GFS forecast for temperatures is quite interesting this morning - see table above. The forecast low temperature for TUS on Wednesday morning (tomorrow) is a relatively balmy 56F. The surface forecast for 6 am tomorrow (below) shows that the model forecasts east winds along the I-10 corridor. The forecast has east winds blowing through the night, and thus the mild nighttime temperatures. Will it be windy here at the house?
