Dear Luckydogs headed for Tucson;

Here is the National Weather Service forecast for precipation for the 
next week:

Looking Ahead: During the next 5 days (January 27 - 31), a pair of 
Pacific storm systems will affect much of the southern half of the 
United States. Heavy rain will briefly return to southern California, 
where some flash flooding is possible before precipitation tapers to 
showers by week's end. Precipitation will also overspread the Great 
Basin and the Southwest, providing additional drought relief but 
bringing the possibility of flash flooding. During the weekend (January 
29-30), locally heavy showers are expected to reach the southern 
Atlantic States. Meanwhile on the Plains, late-week precipitation may 
total one-half inch or more as far north as southern and eastern 
Nebraska. However, unfavorably dry conditions will prevail across 
northern portions of the Rockies and Plains. In the Northwest, only 
light precipitation is expected east of the Cascades. The NWS 6- to 
10-day outlook for February 1-5 calls for warmer- and drier-than-normal 
weather to persist in the Northwest. Mild, mostly dry conditions are 
also expected across the northern Plains and Upper Midwest. In contrast, 
wetter-than-normal conditions are likely from the southern Rockies 
eastward to the southern Atlantic Coast.

Bring umbrella!
Best,
Dave F.
