High clouds overnight associated with a system moving through the Four Corners has kept some of the heat from escaping into space (echo: space, space, space… ). A mild start to another warm southern Arizona day with decreasing clouds today. Clouds will be on the increase tonight as our next storm approacheth. The forecast is still looking promising for valley rain and mountain snow! By tomorrow the system will be moving into southern California with a slight chance for light rain as early as tomorrow night. The main event will be Tuesday night as the storm moves through with showers lingering into the first half of Wednesday. Snow levels will start quite high; above 8,000 feet, but will crash perhaps as low as 5,000. Could see 4-8 inches above 7,000 feet so some sledding in the Catalinas might be in order. Valley locations still expecting up to a half inch of rain, perhaps a bit more. The storm keeps truckin’ so clearing skies Wednesday afternoon and a warming trend for the end of next week. Enjoy!

More high cloudiness today for possible sunrise and sunset enhancement as a system moves out of the Great Basin to the Four Corners. No threat of rain or mountain snow this far south and we’ll stay on the warm side. Upper 70s today. Mid 70s tomorrow. Upper 70s Monday.

By Monday night into Tuesday we’ll see those clouds start to thicken as another, stronger, storm heads our direction. Isolated showers possible Tuesday with the main event Tuesday night into Wednesday. Valley locations still looking at up to a half inch of rain from this storm. Snow levels dropping to around 5,000 – 6,000 feet. Cooler temperatures too. Isolated showers Tuesday mid 70s. Scattered showers Tuesday night into Wednesday morning becoming isolated Wednesday low 60s.

Sunshine returns Thursday and Friday with highs in the mid 60s to near 70 respectively. We’ll keep you posted as we go.

“Things” are getting interesting. Especially mid next week. High pressure still in control, but a storm moving through the Four Corners this weekend will add some added clouds to the mix. Sunrise and sunset enhancement certainly a possibility. Still warm with highs today through Monday in the mid to upper 70s.

The models are in agreement! A storm approacheth Monday and Tuesday with a slight chance for rain with highs in the mid 70s.

The storm moves through Tuesday night and Wednesday with valley rain and mountain snow. Early indications are we could see up to a half inch of rain with snow levels as low as 5,000 feet before the storm leaves us. Wednesday’s high in the mid 60s.

Sunshine returns Thursday with a high near 65ish. The details will come into better focus as we get closer. Stay tuned!

A weak disturbance in the force moving through southern Arizona is giving us some sprinkles and light rain this morning (half the calories than our regular rain). High this afternoon in the low 70s. Look for this feature to move east by tonight with clearing skies.

Mostly sunshine and warm temperatures prevail through the weekend into next week with highs in the mid 70s tomorrow, Saturday, Sunday and Monday.

Then a storm approacheth from the pacific and should move our way by Tuesday night with a chance for showers Tuesday night and Wednesday with a high in the low 70s. Enjoy!

High clouds still around for possible sunrise and sunset enhancement. Warm temperatures too and breezy today with east winds 10-20 mph and gusty and a high in the mid 70s. Winds relax tonight with a low in the mid 40s. Sunny tomorrow with just a few high clouds around and a high in the mid 70s. Upper 70s Friday. Increasing clouds Friday night with partly sunny skies Saturday and Sunday as a weak system brings a slight chance of light rain to our north. We should stay dry with highs in the upper 70s Saturday and low 70s Sunday. Mostly sunny Monday low 70s. Mid 70s Tuesday. There is a hint that another system may bring us a better chance for rain mid next week. We’ll see. Stay tuned!
