Mar 082010
As late as last evening about 8pm, it still looked like we would get 4-8 more inches. For Flagstaff it never materialized. But, don’t worry, today could bring some widely scattered snow, more looks to be on the way for tomorrow. The storm did hold temperatures very constant. Here is an interesting record report:
... Record high low temperatures for northern Arizona on Mar 07 2010... City (period of record) new high low previous record/year Cottonwood-tuzigoot (1977 - 2010) 44 44 (tied) in 2001 ... Record low high temperatures for northern Arizona on Mar 07 2010... City (period of record) new low high previous record/year Cottonwood-tuzigoot (1977 - 2010) 49 50 in 1981
Temperatures just didn’t change much yesterday. I can’t remember seeing this happen before.
While we didn’t end up with piles of snow yesterday, we did set a new precipitation record:
