Any tips on whether I need to worry? Any folks in the high county have

some
words of wisdom? What's normal in AZ for this time of year? They want

$80.00
a night to keep it in a hanger.

The storms are in the late afternoon through the late evening. Time your
flights accordingly.



Running into an afternoon thunderstorm in AZ is almost like hitting a
bus in an open field. They are pretty easy to stay away from. I"ve
never bothered trying to time my summer flights through AZ and NM.
Just turn if you start to head to a TS. If a TS is over the airport
when you are arriving, just throttle back to give yourself an extra 10
minutes. The storm will pass. They rarely stay in one place for long.
