Snowy Palm - a photo on Flickriver

Snowy Palm

            Something we don't get to see very often here in the desert!

It seems that overnight Mother Nature decided to bless Tucson with a dusting of snow!  Locally in Tucson, the National Weather Service reported 1.5 inches of seasonal snowfall—more than some east coast cities this year including Philadelphia and Washington D.C.

Supposedly a persistent blocking pattern over the Pacific Ocean plus cold air migrating south from the Arctic have created the conditions for widespread snowfall along the West Coast.

The nice part for us is that when it does snow it usually falls in the late evening and once the sun comes up it melts off real quick, so no worries about shoveling!

You can see how the sun was already out and the skies were a gorgeous blue.  We're supposed to be looking at 71F (21.6C) by Friday which is all right by me!
