Southern Arizona Storm

Here are photos of this afternoon's storm moving through northwest
Tucson. I'm standing in front of my hangar at KAVQ. From the first photo
until the last was about five minutes:

Neat photos!

We get something like that here every few weeks in the summer. Luckily, the
ground is moist, so the dust isn't kicked up so badly -- and there are
enough trees and structures around so that we can't see it coming from so
far away!

:-)

The tornado sirens went off again here yesterday. One touched down north of
town, but did no damage...

Luckily, the storm dumped a whole bunch of rain, which will keep "the Bread
Basket of the World" (or should that be the "Subsidized
Corn-So-That-We-Can-Ram-Ethanol-Down-Your-Throats Capital of the World"?)
humming along nicely.

Yep. That might be the ONE good thing about the hot weather and air
conditioners. I wasn't home when the dust hit, but I darn well knew
all the windows were closed.....
That bad thing was that when I did get home I had to stand my mesquite
trees back up.

The other bad thing was we saw it coming on the radar, and it scrubbed
my planned flight for the late afternoon. I do NOT want to play in
that stuff or anywhere near it.

I was for a year or so but I've been at AVQ for a couple of years now.
I'm in 207-2. We'll have to get together sometime, I still have the
'Sperminator' kit ;-)

Too much information.
