YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY-TV) - We say hello to the month of March with rain and strong gusty winds across the Desert Southwest.

Take a look below to see how much rain and the highest winds that were recorded today.

This past storm system moves off to the east clearer our skies and calming down our winds.

As we head into our Thursday, we still will have breezy conditions north northwest wind for Yuma and west winds for Imperial with speeds of 5 to 15 mph, with gusts as high as 20 mph.

A gradual warming trend is expected by the upcoming weekend, which will push temperatures back to near normal by the latter half of the weekend through early next week.
