Very windy this afternoon, with wind gusts up to 40 mph today in Tucson. This is all part of a strong low pressure center currently off the Northern California coast, with the cold front extending from just north of San Francisco to the west of Los Angeles. It’s this cold front that’s poised to move into the [...]
Just when you thought it was safe to say it’s spring, Mother Nature looks to have a surprise in store next week. Models are depicting a storm system (defined by the U-shape over Arizona in the image to the left) to roll in by Thursday, bringing valley rain, mountain snow & much cooler weather.
What makes this [...]
In case you haven’t noticed, it’s a little windy out there today. This is thanks in part to a cold front swinging through the northern part of the state.
Here’s a look at sustained wind speeds across Southern Arizona this afternoon, with the strongest winds east of Tucson. A Wind Advisory is in effect until 7 [...]

As a loyal St. Cloud State hockey fan, that stat has haunted me ever since I stepped foot on campus for my first day of classes freshman year. Trips to college hockey’s big dance came in 1988, 1999-2002 and 2006-2007.
8 games. 8 losses. 8 times thinking about the “what if’s” & “what could’ve been’s”.

These two [...]
A cold front is sweeping through the state this morning, with showers ahead of it moving east. As you can see from radar, this activity is north of Tucson & I think it will stay that way. Very dry air over us coupled with a northerly track for this storm system will be the reasons [...]
Alrighty campers, the official “Beamish Bracket” is ready to go & will likely be destroyed by 13-seeds, mid-majors & Duke. Click on the image to see my picks. Last year, yours truly was able to slay the March Madness prognosticators at KVOA. This year? As we say in the TV biz, “stay tuned”.
Interested to hear who [...]
Only fitting that on St. Patrick’s Day, our luck comes via Mother Nature. We’ll crack 80 degrees for the 1st time since November 12th, 2009, which feels like forever ago. Not as breezy as yesterday, with winds today in the 10-15 mph range. Just a pleasant St. Patrick’s Day on tap, so make sure to [...]
Looks like another wonderful day on tap for Southern Arizona. The only feature I’m tracking today is the winds. Thanks to high pressure to the west and a storm system in Texas, east winds today will gust up to 20 mph. These winds should cease after the sun sets this evening.
Still on track for a [...]
