2 more gusty, dusty afternoons; beautiful Mother’s Day — Your 9-Day Forecast

I captured this image of beautiful Palo Verde trees Sunday. They look fantastic, smell great, and blanket the ground with tiny yellow flowers. Today, with the gusty winds, all the little flowers have likely blown away.

TONIGHT:  The winds will become strong and gusty in the afternoon, producing a dusty haze.  The west-NW winds will range from 15-50 mph with the strongest gusts on the east slopes.  Overnight, the winds will slowly die down under clear skies, and the low will drop to 59.
