Neighborhood group plots change of course for Oro Valley golf linksFor Star subscribers:ย An abandoned golf course could soon find new life as a nature preserve, with impressive views of the Catalina Mountains, โphenomenal native vegetation,โ petroglyphs, walking trails and wildlife.

Mount Lemmon is bursting with color right now, though the leaves aren't quite at their peak yet. Head north of Tucson and into the Catalina Mountains for a taste of autumn.
A large storm system moving across the Western United States is expected to bring colder temperatures to the Tucson area.
