Meaning: you can't see what's right in front of you. No, I'm not going to say anything about guys looking for stuff. This morning, you can't see the mountains for the blowing dirt/sand. Monsoon season in the desert.
Looking to the southeast...
On the far right side of that image, you can see some of South Mountain. You would normally see that on the left side, as well. Not today; it is shrouded in blowing dirt. 25 miles southeast of here, they had 20 foot visibility, rain, and hail. Looking to the west, you can't see the Estrella Mountains; no point in a photo, just dirty air.
Yes, Murphy still wanted to go out. It is not blowing here. In fact, the wind is forecast for single digits here for most of the day. In anticipation, the patio umbrellas have been put in the shed, along with the flag and the canopy over the hot tub...
There is a 30% or greater chance of precip for the next week. We can use the moisture; it has been over 3 months since we've had measurable (greater than .01") rain.
