Weather It Is (A Late Winter Storm)

Good Morning:

Friday's milder weather was interrupted with occasional showers.  These showers were laden with plenty of desert dust, and the dust and an approaching front set the stage for strong thunderstorms Friday night.  On Shabbat, the dust and plenty of moisture combined for periodic thunderstorms and hail.

Heavy rain Motzei Shabbat will continue today (Sunday) as an upper level low approaches.  Since temperatures at 500 mb will be cooling off, the arrival of the storm should bring another chance for thunderstorms tonight.  Because this is a slow moving storm, rain and shows could last into Tuesday.

The good news for those who are looking forward to spring: the passage of the storm will be followed by steadily increasing temperatures.  The warmer temperatures should last into early next week when possibly another storm should arrive.
