@Patrick L
I'm thinking that it's two different systems. One starting tomorrow night and ending Saturday, and the next one moving in Sunday night into Monday, clearing out Tuesday night/Wednesday morning....Trying to plan a Trip, deciding whether to Hike or Fish, in the rain....with all of it being a campout....

I'd have to agree with that statement. You should hike in somewhere, set up camp, and fish for your dinner.

Logistically, probably impossible, since I still do not own a tent...I could "tarp" it, but I'm kinda miserable outside in cold, winter rain...Nope, fishing for another reason this time, so won't be "combining" it with Hiking...Probably Car Camp/Hike early in the week and then do the Fishing Trip after the weather blows over....Planning on using a self propelled boat this time and don't want to get blown all over the Lake....Patrick L wrote:You should hike in somewhere, set up camp, and fish for your dinner.

I don't know if it's the 20-foot aluminum ladder or the shelter-structure on top, but it looks like it might qualify as a tent of some kind.

I think even my blue "rain" tarp that I rig up has more functionality than that.... Re: 2013: Rain, Snow, Wind, and Sun

At some point they might want to update the forecast from "a slight chance of sprinkles before 11am"

Yep, you would think they'd update. Taken from AZ Central 5 minutes ago....
Warmer than normal temperatures stay put for Thursday under partly cloudy skies. By Thursday night, we see the first signs of rain chances in the Valley as an area of low pressure digs in from California. Our best rain chances are Friday evening into Saturday, but another system will keep rain chances in until Monday evening. Snow levels for the High Country will start out at about 8500' with little to no accumulation expected.

Raining at the South Rim - not snow, rain!

I made it to Tucson. I rolled in from the north on 77 at around 11 a.m. and it was sprinkling. It is still damp. It is warm, though! Yay, warmth!

You rolled in? I usually drive in. Less painful and faster.

Yeah. I rolled.

Remember how fun it was to roll down a hill as a kid? The thought of doing that now is horrifying.azbackpackr wrote:Yeah. I rolled.
Anyway, nights and mornings here have been in the single digits this week. It's unpleasant.

I understand Arizona had some sort of a rain and snow storm. Is this true, can someone verify this? ;)

We had 2.75 inches in our rain gauge from Friday-Mon morning... Snow level is supposed to drop...
