[meteorite-list] SNOW in Tucson! Get ready to be cold. NOT

[lebofsky at lpl.arizona.edu]

Hi From (usually) warm and sunny Tucson.

First the good news:

It should be lows around 40 F (4 or 5 C) and highs around 70 (20 C) and
sunny by the weekend with little chance of rain.

That said, here is the webcam picture from the University of Arizona campus.

If you could see the mountains, they would be covered with snow (that is
what we can see from our kitchen window), however, as I keep looking at
the updated picture, it is getting clearer. What is unusual is that it
snowed (2 inches) down town, but up where I live, north of town and about
100 ft (35 meters) higher, we got almost nothing. By the time it got cold
enough, it had stopped raining (but I cannot through the trash out because
the lid to our trash can is frozen shut).

So, I predict (ha, it was supposed to be sunny yesterday) that we will
have perfect weather for all of you when you get to Tucson.

I look forward to seeing many of you here. Start thinking about articles
that you would like to write for Meteorite magazine (or what you would
like to see in the magazine).
