Snow In The Santa Catalina Mountains As Seen From Sabino Canyon — Image by kenne
Over the last week I have shared some photos taken on a nature walk after rain in the canyon, snow in the mountains. I have now uploaded all the photos taken that day to Flickr. Click here to see a slideshow.

OK, so you will have to take my word for it since it was just a little dusting at the lower levels. Yesterday we received our first moisture in months, along with a high temp of 49 degrees and an over night temp in the mid-thirties. At daylight this morning, the mountains were not in view because of the foggy conditions and 100% humidity. Yes, that’s correct, 100% humidity, in the desert. Mount Lemmon, behind the ridges in pictures above got plenty of snow — and here we are one-third of the way into April. Obviously, our weather here in Tucson continues to be far from normal — no complaints here, though.

Sabino Canyon Creek is running low this year. Little rain in the Catalina’s and snow on Mount Lemmon has resulted in few spring wildflowers and no water running over the low-water crossings in the canyon.
