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.

Some Thunderstorms Around Southeast Arizona
Some thunderstorms developed this afternoon ahead of a weak short wave moving across southern Arizona. Composite radar above is from 5:10 pm MST. Graphic below shows 6-hour CG flash density for 6-hours ending at 6:50 pm. At bottom is the 00 UTC sounding plot for Tucson (TWC), showing that some high-based CAPE developed during the day. The storms have mostly occurred to the east and south of Tucson, but a few flashes did occur in eastern Pima County. More serious storm activity was occurring in eastern Colorado this afternoon.
