well, because that's how dry it is up there. this is the one out near parachute, also within that fire danger area. as we take a look, we had a little warm front, a kink really in the stationary front. that allowed the warm air to come up from the south and give us the 90s today. a surge of cooler air pushes through, and that will knock 10 or 12 degrees off our thermometer. here is hermine. just wandering out west-northwest at 7 miles an hour. just 4 miles an hour away from a category 1 hurricane. so we're watching this one very carefully. this might give us help. this is hurricane newton at baja california. moving northwest, but it's going to track back to the east and towards southeastern arizona, and that could just surge some moisture into our area, and give us some much needed rains. that will happen toward the end of the week.
