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.

Increased Moisture Heading Into Arizona
The two MIMIC blended PW analyses here show the progression of higher moisture northward up the GoC - above is for 12 UTC this morning and below is from 24-hours earlier. Values of PW well over an inch have reached northward to 30 degrees north. This is quite some push up the GoC for mid-May.
The WRF-NAM forecasts from Atmo at 06 UTC continue to indicate a chance for high-based thunderstorms over parts of Arizona tonight and tomorrow. Forecast of composite radar echoes above is valid at 2:00 pm MST tomorrow afternoon. Forecast below is for precipitation through midnight tomorrow. Finally, a bit more to watch than just the thermometer.
