Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

Snow in the Catalina Mountains, Oro Valley AZ

While the rest of the country has been suffering from cold temperatures and ice storms, Tucson decided to join in the cold and wet weather too! I don't remember when I last saw such cold December temperatures in Tucson; highs in the mid 40's, lots of rain and even a bit of snow. Even though the wet weather is not so fun, it makes for great skiing on Mt Lemmon now and an incredible wildflower season come Spring.
I do apologize to all you visitors that came to Tucson expecting sunshine and highs in the 70's. Maybe next week!

Valorie,

Yes it is too bad for the folks that come down for the great weather. Although it is kind of relative. If you're used to 12F at night then 47F at night isn't so bad. I guess as long as the sun comes out during the day.

That's a beautiful picture by the way.
