Claudette is retaining awesome structure despite making landfall over 30 hours ago ... and the HPC still has it as a tropical depression with 25 mph sustained with gusts to 34 mph ...

Anyway, this looks to be promising for some much needed moisture for the Desert SW as she continues to barrel W to WNW ...

Looks like it is basically making beeline for Arizona, boy they could seriously use this precipitation. :)

Imagine if this system had warm water ahead of it to regenerate, it certain had enough energy to do so.

Wow...that is impressive. I sure hope the rain associated with it gets to Arizona...where they really need it.
