Clear skies at Tucson International Airport this morning with temperatures climbing to around 90 degrees under mostly cloudy conditions later, cooling to 65 tonight. No rain in sight, so outdoor plans from Starr Pass to Tohono Chul stay on track, though we stay hydrated in this dry air.

We are thrilled about todays big events tying into our vibrant community spirit. The Dr. Gann's Diet of Hope Cinco de Mayo 10K and 5K kicks off at 6:30 AM at Cholla High School on Starr Pass Boulevard, winding through the stunning Tucson Mountains foothills with mountain views and a festive post-race party featuring mariachi music, breakfast burritos, and a kids FitKidz Mile complete with pinatas.
