Colorful skies looking toward Redington Pass at 5:50 am MST this morning.
Plot of detected CG flashes (above, from Atmo and Vaisala) for 24-hours ending at 0803 UTC last night shows a typical metro donut hole.
Rainfall across the Alert network yesterday (above and below) was widely scattered, with heaviest amounts in the southern part of the network and little in the main metro area. We had thunder and a Trace here, as did the airport and DM, while Atmo reported no rain.
The TWC/TUS upper-air data remain missing, and there is still no info from the NWS Forecast Office regarding this situation. The morning 500 mb analysis (above from SPC) indicates southwesterly winds of 30 to 35 kts over Arizona. The 12 UTC WRF-HRRR forecast through midnight (below, from Atmo) indicates storms today only near and over the mountains.
Morning graphic for today (above) and the current forecast for the airport (below) from the NWS. The POPs through the weekend are basically climatological values for this time of year, so nothing really to focus on.
