Another warm day in the east valley of AZ...high of 83F and low of 57F. 

[Silas_Sancona]

After a  strangely " hot " day spent running around Tucson Saturday,  and actually enjoying a < Warm > SB Sunday,  Still 82F  at 5:28PM on Monday #2 of the month after reaching 86 around 3..  Honestly feels warmer than that.  Warm enough today that i had to water.  



Some neighborhood level readings around 3:30.. inc. a few 90s on the board today..  Back down to 84F by that time a few blocks from the house in downtown. 












One ( ?? ) more day  in the 80s before temps pull back a little as some unsettled weather returns to the west over the next few days. 



Slight rebound is currently suggested for the upcoming weekend, before a -potentially- stronger storm may bring a decent cooldown, and rain chances sometime next week..

..I say " potentially "  because,    ..eye balling the forecasts over the past few days,   while the < brief > pattern shift that has been suggested for the west around mid month is still on the board,  majority of the individual storms that may approach / pass through are looking pretty weak / majority of any rain or snow chances they might offer up staying further north than some of the earlier thoughts had suggested..  ..Direction most of the models seem to be pointing in right now.

As usual, what is suggested now, can flip tomorrow so, ..We'll see. 

Regardless, continued confirmation in the longer term model thoughts that ...whatever..  cool shift occurs over the next ~ approx. 10 days across the state / part of the country,  it will be gone by the final week of the month / Winter 25 -6   with temps quickly returning to above normal territory. 

Normal high at Sky Harbor is currently 70.  Pretty sure it increases by 2 -4 degs by the end of month, which means  ..if we return to the same " 9 to 15degs above normal warmth "  at that time,  we could be flirting w/ our first " official " 90 / 90s around the start of March..

Broken record repeating itself  again,  but,  we'll see what happens.

In a nod to just how dry / warm it has been, there is a wildfire being watched closely near Payson atm..


Monday P.V. check:  " Nothing - burger "  trend continues?






Rando 🤷🏽‍♂️ dilemma for the evening:  Who do you go with.. 




Strong is the loyalty to both teams..  so,   Guess the question will come down to:  Who  showed up ready to play.. 



Regardless,  per - fect night for anyone making the wise choice of watching the game out - side,  ..Here at least.

I recorded a high of 83F and low of 53F in the east valley today. I agree that it felt like it was warmer sitting in the sun but might just be because it's winter (lol!). 

As much as I don't want to see a cool down, I really can't complain with the winter we've had so far. I've definitely had to do more watering than usual for this time of the year. 

I was not aware of the fire in Payson so I'll have to look into it.

While i have been very.... discriminating.. w/ any watering,  even with how dry / warm it has been ( Most of what i'm growing can't be watered this time of year regardless )  i have had to hit some stuff ..just enough.. to be sure those particular things don't suffer root dieback due to a lack of -any- moisture in the soil.  ..and to keep some seedling stuff planted alive. 

Good portion of what spring annuals i have growing out front ..even the stuff that came up at the right time,  are all showing signs of throwing in the towel for the year.  


Looks like the fire ( Bonita, via Watch Duty info. ) is contained at 26.3 acres..  https://app.watchduty.org/i/78721   regardless, was a little surprised to hear of -any- incident on the news tonight..

Right now it's 24. It's going to be around 46 Tomorrow but typically at my house our daytime highs are always a couple degrees warmer so it will probably be around 50. Thankfully we got out of that nasty Arctic blast in most days will be pretty average except a couple.

Tomorrow there's also a chance of thunderstorms. I hope we do get some. I love lightning and thunderstorms https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1DVKyYNGW8/

Also today we had our first crocus blooms!!! And many more to come. I uploaded a video of them if anyone wants to watch it. https://youtube.com/shorts/3K_dBprBxlI?si=jp-pkk72MsUO9wVG

Right now it's 50 degrees here in needmore Pennsylvania the extended forecast looks pretty good except a couple days but i'm not complaining 

The state of Pennsylvania has like an invisible line of which side is Warm and which side is cold. It's cool how the jet stream works.
