There are a few clouds this morning far off to south of Kitt Peak in Mexico.
There were some thunderstorms around eastern Pima County yesterday afternoon, as per plot of detected CG flashes for 24-hours ending at 2:30 am MST last night (from Atmo and Vaisala). Nothing here at house; 15 ALERT sites had light showers and a site in north Oro Valley reported over half an inch.
This morning skies are clear over all the Southwest, with only a bit of cloud cover in northern Sonora.
The morning forecast from the NWS is very grim for rest of week - above and below. Caution needed for outdoor activities, except around sunrise and sunset.
