FIRST ALERT FORECAST - Why we had less storm activity today
TUCSON, Ariz. (13 News) – Nearly a 180 today in terms of storm activity, as there were only a few isolated showers & storms around. The two big reasons for this are that yesterday’s widespread storm activity sucked out all of the energy in the atmosphere for today’s storms, as well as it becoming drier. We’ll likely see more storms tomorrow, especially out east, calming down on Monday, becoming busier again on Tuesday & Wednesday, & becoming quieter yet again by later in the workweek. Truly a see-sawing of storm action.
