Forecast for Thursday, July 13, 2017

More scattered rain last night!  Although the airport got skunked where I am house sitting in the Foothills got another good soaking.  Great light show too!  Look for a repeat performance tonight.  An upper level low in far west Texas is slowly moving west.  As it gets closer we’ll see our SW flow continue and we’ll add more energy to the atmosphere.  That means storms forming this afternoon on the Mogollon Rim will make the drive to Tucson and give us more rain and an awesome light show tonight.  Some of the activity this afternoon and evening may be severe with some large hail and damaging winds perhaps.  Storm chances continue through the weekend and into next week with seasonable temperatures.  Viva Monsoon 2017!

Mostly sunny today with a slight chance of a storm or two this afternoon and a high near 99.

Mostly cloudy tonight with a good chance for storms and a low near 78.

Partly sunny tomorrow with scattered afternoon and evening storms possible with a high near 101.  Scattered storm chances continue through Wednesday of next week with highs near 101, 99, 98, 98 and 99 respectively.

Forecast for Wednesday, July 12, 2017

Another streak is broken.  Yesterday was the first time we didn’t hit 100 or above in 27 days!  Fantastic.  The other good news is the forecast.  Scattered storms into next week and perhaps beyond, hopefully near you.  A disturbance to our south approaching the Texas Big Bend should help to get storms firing by this evening.  Locally heavy rainfall possible with some of the storms.  Tomorrow may see a few severe storms, so there’s that.  Storm chances remain through the weekend and into next week.  Viva Monsoon 2017!

Mostly sunny today with a few storms possible this afternoon and a high in the upper 90s.

Mostly cloudy tonight with storms and a low in the mid 70s.

Scattered storms possible tomorrow through Tuesday with highs near 99, 102, 101, 99, 98 and 100 respectively.  Enjoy!

Forecast for Tuesday, July 11, 2017

It was a long time coming.  We suffered through an epic heatwave and even the prickly pear were suffering under the scorching arid Sun.  Last night was our reward!  The big payoff!  Pretty much everyone got soaked and the desert took a long much needed drink.  .69″ storm total at the airport and many got more!  The good news is the pattern continues.  Tons of moisture in place with scattered storms and seasonable temperatures through the weekend.  Viva Monsoon 2017!

Partly sunny today with a chance for late afternoon storms and a high in the upper 90s.

Mostly cloudy tonight with scattered storms and a low in the upper 70s.
