Gert Cometh!

Came back after 12 hours or so.... Bullseye! Big mesoscale convective complex (MCC) over the Phoenix area! Surprisingly, they aren't reporting much precipitation, at least yet, except over NW Phoenix: Wickenburg, for example. It sure looks like it could have cranked out the rain though!

I suspect things will continue like this for much of the next week. National Weather Service Phoenix feels things will calm down a little bit, but that might not happen, especially with that nasty group of former Yucatan thunderstorms (which the National Hurricane Center now calls Tropical Storm Gert) following Emily's path to NW Mexico, by late-week.
