Tucson weather: Hot and windy, yesterday's rain

Rain is often seen as gloomy and sad. But in Tucson, rain is quite the opposite. 

Tucson finally saw some rain yesterday afternoon — .13 inches to be exact. 

A column-shaped art installation also toppled over near 22nd Street and Kino Parkway, supposedly due to a microburst from yesterday's weather. 

As for today's weather predictions: imagine you're standing outside in 100-degree weather with a hair dryer pointed at your face.

That's probably how today will feel.
