This goes back to my question from the second week of May, is this wind we are seeing unprecedented? It just seems to me that I've never seen it this consistently windy. Sure April is always windy and I know it is the windy-est month on record in Phoenix but after June and it's still blowing like this????????? There were always the 2 or 3 days of wind with a break in between. Now it just seems like even the days when its possible to go out it's still somewhat windy. A calm day now is still 8mph. Where did the days go of absolutely no wind? Climate Change much....

Agree- June and July are both typically pretty windy.

In August and September the wind will be replaced by steam rising off the ocean surface.

Speaking of wind, we in Green Valley, just had quite a mid-day monsoon storm. It hit about 1:00 whereas lately most storms have hit in the early evening or at night.
The lightning was ,2 miles from our place and there were humongous winds and downpours. Hope it hits all those spots that are burning. We had to
have over an inch of rain which is sorely needed. The temperature dropped from 99 to 73.

Dadratted thing woke me up from my pre-nap nap.

I must say the wind is fantastic down here the past 2 days. The cool breeze off the ocean on Playa Encanto is making it a pleasure to be here this time of year.

On the other hand, 8-15 MPH winds are great for skydiving! At that wind speed your air speed relative to the ground is near zero and makes for nice soft landings. I may take up jumping again as an additional hobby for when the seas are choppy or the fish are finicky.

The wind is the only thing that's keeping me from feeling so bad that I haven't been able to spend as much time down there this year as last year.

It was beautiful today! Calm sea, breezy enough to offset the humidity. Sunset was delightful on the patio.
I didn't trust the calm Saturday so didn't haul all my gear to the beach. Its too much work for just one afternoon.
We could have had 2 really nice days over the reefs at Las Conchas :-(
