“Ohhh, I hear laughter in the rain, walking hand and hand with the one I love. Ohhh how I love a rainy day and the happy way I feel inside…” Happy Valentine’s Day! And what is Valentine’s Day without a little Neil Sedaka?! (hey, don’t judge 🙂 ) Our upper level low is off the southern California coast pulling moisture to the north into Arizona. A disturbance in the moisture fetch (fetching, isn’t it?) should trigger shower activity by this afternoon. Rain showers continue and even increase as we get into this evening and the overnight hours. Rain chances continue tomorrow. The rain starts to wane tomorrow night and Friday with sunshine returning for the weekend. Valley locations still looking at anywhere from a quarter inch to an inch of rain before it is all said and done, at the end of the day, and other trite phrases. Lower amounts more likely as you head west of Tucson. Higher amounts more likely south and east. We need the rain. Pray it’s on the high side!

Cloudy today with scattered showers by this afternoon and a high in the mid 60s.
