Forecast for Thursday, June 1, 2017

Happy Friday Eve!  Makes the weekend seem closer.  It’s also June 1st which is the first day of Summer meteorologically speaking.  Of course June is also our hottest month around these parts, so there’s that.  Just a little cooler today as our weak low is taking it’s sweet time exiting the state.  It will be taking these mid and high level clouds with it as the day rolls on.  Then high pressure builds in and flexes its muscles for a warming trend and 100+ degree days right into next week.  Enjoy!

Decreasing clouds today becoming mostly sunny with a high in the mid 90s.

Mostly clear tonight with a low in the mid 60s.

Sunny tomorrow upper 90s.  Near 102 Saturday and Sunday.  104 Monday.  103ish Tuesday and Wednesday.

Forecast for Wednesday, May 31, 2017

I can’t afford a promotions department so I will have to toot my own horn (sounds painful).  Yesterday I mentioned that if storms to our east formed a bit closer than expected we could see outflow winds in the afternoon/evening gusting to 40 mph.  While they weren’t quite that we did get some fairly strong outflow breezes yesterday evening.  Chances are this is the only place that gave you a heads up yesterday although I could be wrong about that.  Anyway, thanx for reading, liking, sharing and considering becoming a Patreon.  This is how I start my day 7 days a week for over the last several years!

Anyway… moving forward, our exiting low will give us lingering clouds into tomorrow for possible sunrise and sunset possibilities!  Storms possible east of the Metro again this afternoon and evening.  A bit cooler too to start June, but here comes the big hurt starting the weekend!  Ah June.  If we can survive you the rest of the Summer is gravy.  (mmm gravy)

Mostly sunny today with a high in the upper 90s.

Partly cloudy tonight with a low in the upper 60s.

Mostly sunny tomorrow mid 90s.  Upper 90s Friday.  Near 103 Saturday.  104 Sunday.  103 Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.

Forecast for Tuesday, May 30, 2017

Back to the salt mines for most of us.  I have lots of watermelon left over from yesterday, so there’s that!  More moisture and more clouds today as a weak low combined with an increase in moisture will give us a chance for storms south and east of Tucson.  If those storms form close enough to us we may see some gusty outflow winds move through the metro later this afternoon/evening.  It may not happen, but something to watch.  More clouds as a result as well which will likely lead to sunset enhancement tonight.  A little cooler the next couple of days behind the low.  As you can imagine we will warm up by the first weekend of June, because, June!  Back to the triple digits.  Enjoy!

Mostly sunny today with a high near 100.  SW winds 10-15 mph.  Winds up to 40 mph IF thunderstorm outflow winds reach us by this evening.

Partly cloudy tonight with a low in the upper 60s.

Mostly sunny tomorrow upper 90s.  Mid 90s Thursday.  Upper 90s Friday and Saturday.  Near 101 Sunday and Monday.

Forecast for Monday, May 29, 2017

Just beautiful on the deck this morning.  A nice and cool start to a warm Memorial Day with nuthin’ but Sun.  Moisture on the increase to our east, but it shouldn’t quite get to us this week.  Just a few more clouds and slightly cooler as a weak system moves across the state Wednesday through Friday.  Perhaps some sunrise and sunset enhancement possibilities!  Heating up again by next weekend.  Have an amazing Memorial Day as we remember the sacrifice of those who were willing to give all for our freedoms.

The triple digits return soon but only for a couple dayz.  Then back near normal (96ish) by the end of next week as a bit more moisture sneaks in for a chance of a storm or two well to our east.  Also a few more clouds for possible sunrise and sunset enhancement.  Enjoy!

Forecast for Saturday, May 27. 2017

We are done with RED FLAG WARNINGS.  (I never did see a red flag)  Please continue to use common sense setting stuff on fire and stuff.  It’s still really dry out there.  Just lighter winds to fan the flames.  High pressure building back in with tons of Sun and warmer temperatures this weekend.  An increase in moisture may lead to a storm or two mainly to our east and in the higher terrain.  (first time I’ve used the word “terrain” in a forecast!)  It’ll also lead to a few more clouds for possible sunrise and sunset enhancement!  Enjoy!

It’s Friiiiidaaaayy!  Heading into a three day weekend to boot.  Another breezy “cool” day before high pressure builds back in for a warmer Memorial Day weekend.  Increasing moisture and a weak low will give areas to our east a slight chance of a storm or two by mid next week, but we shall stay high and dry here in Tucson.

Forecast for Thursday, May 25, 2017

Happy Friday Eve!  Makes the weekend seem closer.  Which is good because we are gonna have to put up with a bit of wind nonsense between now and then.  Fire danger is high so the National Weather Service has issued a RED FLAG WARNING for this afternoon and evening and ditto for tomorrow.  Please for the love of everything that is right and good if you smoke keep your butt in the car.  Also be careful if you like to set stuff on fire.  Maybe resist the urge for a couple of days.  Calming down and warming back up for the Memorial Day Weekend!  Then a surge (OK, surge is too strong) of moisture moves our way and we have a slight chance of a thunderstorm or two!  More thunder than storm so another chance at fires.  Stay tuned and stay not on fire!

High pressure hanging out one more day before it weakens and heads south and east.  104 is the record set in 1983 & hit again in 1984 and 2001.  Will we add 2017 to the list?  If the forecast comes exactly true we will.  I’ll let you know how it goes tonight.  Then it’s more wind and a FIRE WEATHER WATCH for tomorrow and Friday, so watch out for fires.  High pressure begins its return this weekend but with some high cloudiness for possible sunrise and sunset enhancement.  Enjoy!

Forecast for Monday, May 22, 2017

High pressure large and in charge until Thursday or so when it will start to break down and head east.  A couple of storms missing us to the north will then kick up our winds, increase our fire danger, knock down our temperatures, steal our prom date, cause more bad drivers, and blow stuff into the pool.  Starting to warm back up by the end of the weekend.  Enjoy!
