Event Heads Northeast


Today's weather "event" has pretty much moved away to the northeast. Above is visible satellite image from 1:30 pm and below is ALERT sector for Catalinas at 2 pm MST. Rainfall was light and limited to the Catalina Mountains here in eastern Pima County - pretty much as forecast by Atmo's WRF model runs the last three days. The model may have over-forecast rainfall out in central Pima County. Strong winds continue to the east of Tucson and the very exposed RAWS station at Guthrie has gusted over 60 mph. So, we ended up with wind and dust and no rainfall at lower elevations here in Tucson metro area.
