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.

New Week - Little Change
Little to report as a new week gets underway - breezy/windy periods but with temperatures mostly in 90s, i.e., a bit cooler than last week. Visible satellite image above is from 6:30 am MST showing mostly clear skies across the state. There are some lenticular clouds around as there were yesterday - probably in a moist layer around 600 mb, that has strong inversion just above.
Below is WRF-GFS forecast for total precipitation across the west for the period ending at 5:00 pm on May 21st (from the 00 UTC run at Atmo on the 5.4 km grid). GEFS ensemble plumes for QPF at TUS remain flat-lined. So it goes.
