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.

End Of April
Mild (68 F at airport at 6:00 am MST) at sunrise, with high clouds overhead, on last day of April. Past month has been dry, with only 0.04" of rain here at house - on April 11th. April through June are usually our three driest months of the year - so about two more months of this before we can look forward to the thunderstorm season.
Image down at bottom shows freeways nearly deserted near LAX on this foggy, "Stay-At-Home" morning.
Banner from NWS yesterday afternoon - official high at airport yesterday was 101 F - first hundred degree day coming about three weeks to a month earlier than normal (depending upon which time period is considered, as per above).
Coming week will be high and dry (as per below), with afternoon highs upper 90s to low 100s and no chances for rainfall. Second below is forecast of total precipitation through 5:00 pm May 7th (from 00 UTC WRF-GFS last evening).
