Forecast for Friday, November 29, 2019

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 Thursday, November 28, 2019

Happy Thanksgiving! I can smell your roasting turkey from here. Amazing! Is it irony or coincidence that turkeys go “gobble gobble gobble”? What time is dinner? 🙂

Our Winter storm approacheth with wind and rain and literally tons of mountain snow. (seriously. If you weigh all the snow it will easily weigh tons) The associated cold front with our approaching storm is currently in western Arizona. It will hang out there through this afternoon before heading east and moving through these parts tonight. Winds and rain chances will increase as it gets closer and moves through. Snow levels are currently around 8,000 feet. Those will slowly sink to 7,000 feet and then down to 5,000 feet by tomorrow morning. 6 inches of snow or so possible above 6,000 feet. 1 to 2 feet perhaps above 7,000. Could see 3 feet or more at Ski Valley! Just epic if it comes true. For Summerhaven a FLASH FLOOD WATCH is in effect from 5:00 tonight until 5:00 tomorrow night. A WIND ADVISORY begins at 11:00 tonight and ends at 2:00 tomorrow afternoon. Be advised, it’s gonna be windy with winds gusting to 60 mph to blow that heavy snow around! A WINTER STORM WARNING is in effect from 11:00 tonight until Noon tomorrow. If I could afford a cabin up there I’d head up today, start a fire in the fireplace, and enjoy the show!

This is Tucson Weather, so let’s go over the 411 for the Old Pueblo. A 40% chance for showers this morning otherwise mostly cloudy today with a high in the upper 60s.
