Gone for three days and more stuff is blooming

The pint-sized tomatoes all survived 2.5 days of neglect.

The smaller tree has its leaves out.

The mesquite's leaves are sprouting.

African daisies are now in purple bloom as well as the smaller purple dot flowers.

It's very windy on this late afternoon.

Windy, fire conditions likely in county today
Published: Sunday, March 22, 2009 2:15 AM MST

SIERRA VISTA — Cochise County is under a fire weather watch today, according to the National Weather Service.
The watch comes as a low pressure system moves into Arizona, bringing cooler temperatures and possibly strong, gusty winds, the weather service said.
The fire weather watch was issued on Friday.
The weather service says that low humidities and strong winds are expected and may produce fire weather conditions.
The weather service is forecasting winds of 20 to 30 mph today, with gusts of up to 45 mph beginning late this morning and going through the evening hours.
The minimum relative humidity during that time will be 10 to 15 percent, which, when combined with the strong winds, causes red flag conditions, the weather service said.
