Blowing Dust


Clear skies this morning, with only a bit of dust still hanging in the air. View above of Catalinas and from San Simon at bottom.


Strong winds yesterday affected much of the state, with gusts of 35 to 45 mph very common. Views here are of Monument Valley (above) and along I-10 east of Tucson (below). The dust blowing off the Willcox Playa (below) shut down I-10 yesterday afternoon.

Notable gusts yesterday were: 43 mph at the airport; 53 mph at Pioneer Airfield; 52 mph Ft. Huachuca; and 70 mph at the exposed, Guthrie RAWS site.
