Daily Forecast, ,

Another blustery day in the thousand acre desert… A RED FLAG WARNING AND a WIND ADVISORY (so be advised… it’s gonna be windy) have been issued for today. Perhaps a bit repeatedly redundant, but it gets the idea across. Gusty winds and a high fire danger. If you smoke, keep your butt(s) in your car! Increasing moisture and a chance for storms Wednesday and a better chance Thursday. It’s getting to be that time of year! Kinda hot for the 4th… and the 5th.

Sunny and windy today with SW winds 20-30 mph gusting to 40 and a high in the upper 80s. Winds relax tonight especially after midnight mid 60s. Still breezy fo sheezy tomorrow with WSW winds 15-20 mph gusting to 30 with a high “only” in the mid 90s. A 20% chance for afternoon and evening storms Wednesday (hopefully near you) upper 90s. A 30% chance Thursday upper 90s. Mostly sunny Friday 101. 10% chance for storms on the 4th 104. 10% Sunday 105. Enjoy!

Daily Almanac, ,

Here comes a cold front! If it hits you like it did us here in Phoenix at 4:00 a.m., look out! I swear a couple of trees were gonna blow down! They didn’t, but wow, that was exciting! Good thing standing in long lines at 4:00 a.m. for Black Friday isn’t a thing anymore. (is it?) Either way, strong winds ahead of the front and as it passes this morning. Still expecting valley rain and massive mountain snow today. .5″ to 1.5″ inches of rain possible. 1 to 2 feet of snow above 7,000 feet (I’m looking at you Summerhaven) and 3 feet or so at Ski Valley. Exciting times!

FLASH FLOOD WATCH in effect until 5:00 this evening and a WIND ADVISORY until 2:00 this afternoon, so be advised, it’s windy. Wind gusts over 30 mph with a 100% chance of rain. Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day would be proud. (silly ol’ bear) Today’s high in the upper 50s.

Clearing skies by tonight if not sooner with perhaps a lingering shower and a low in the upper 30s.

Cool tomorrow after that chilly start (mmm chili) and a high in the upper 50s.

Sunny Sunday upper 60s. Low 70s Monday. Partly sunny Tuesday low 70s. A 20% chance for showers Wednesday near 70ish. 30% Thursday upper 60s. Enjoy!

Forecast for Friday, July 6, 2018

Daily Forecast,

Well that was fun! Monsoon 2018 surprised us by over performing on the predicted 10% chance of storms. Some wind damage and blowing dust as a result and much needed rain for some. All that after tying the record high of 111!

It’s Friiidaaay!!! The east wind has been whipping overnight and will continue into this afternoon with gusts around 40 mph expected. If it’s not tied down it’s likely in Yuma by now. WIND ADVISORY in effect until 3:00 this afternoon, so be advised, it’s going to be windy. So far the morning low has been 88. Yuck! Looking for a high this afternoon near 105. The record of 109 should be safe. Should.

Mostly clear tonight and breezy, but not as windy as last night and today, with a low in the low 80s.

Storm chances return this weekend and next week! We’ll keep the easterly flow. Moisture is already here and will increase a bit. Disturbances in the force will move through from time to time enhancing thunderstorm chances. The exact timing of those is hard to pinpoint, but it’s gonna be a thing!

10% chance for storms Saturday 105. 20% chance for storms Saturday night near 80ish. 20% chance for storms Sunday 102. 40% chance for storms Sunday night upper 70s. 40% chance for storms Monday 99. 40% chance for storms Tuesday and Wednesday mid 90s. 20% chance for storms Thursday mid 90s. Viva Monsoon 2018!

So you’re saying there’s a chance! Before we dive in to a busy forecast let’s start with yesterday. 103 for the third day in a row with a bit of an afternoon breeze. Those temperatures and wind speeds are on the way up along with storm chances. EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING today from 10:00 a.m. until 9:00 p.m. so be warned, the heat will be excessive. Make sure you stay hydrated lest you burst into flames! Today’s expected of high of 108 is getting too close for comfort to the record of 111. Also. A slight chance for an isolated storm or two this afternoon and evening. It’s still too dry at the surface so IF we see a storm it’s likely to create some strong gusty winds and maybe mostly dry lightning.

Any storms that form will die with the setting sun and the east winds will start to increase overnight keeping our morning low not so low in the low 80s. East winds could gust to 40 mph and so we have a WIND ADVISORY from 3:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m.. Be advised, it’s gonna be windy.

Mostly sunny and windy tomorrow like I just mentioned with a high near 104ish.

Moisture on the increase this weekend into next week. Storm chances on the rise! Singing in the rain and dancing in the streets! 10% chance for storms Saturday 105. 30% chance for storms Saturday night! 20% chance for storms Sunday 102 and 40% Sunday night. 40% chance for storms Monday 100. 40% chance for storms Tuesday upper 90s. 40% chance for storms Wednesday mid 90s.
