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.

Windy As Week Ends
Gusty winds in model forecasts for tomorrow afternoon and also Friday afternoon. Winds result from strong system off west coast moving east-southeastward into the Great Basin. Above is 06 UTC WRF-GFS forecast from last night of 10-m winds valid at 1:00 pm MST tomorrow
Took a look at CG flashes from Mexico southward into Central America this morning. Plot of detected CG flashes (below, for 12-hours ending at 06 UTC last night - from Atmo and Vaisala) indicates Mexico quiet west of Continental Divide with most activity far to south over Central America - seems a bit far south, reflecting the persistent western U.S. trough. Will start keeping close tabs on the activity.
Also of interest, the eastern, north Pacific hurricane season begins today.
