Precipitation summary… There has been no recent measurable precip.
Forecast discussion…
There is nothing on radar in our area Sunday afternoon.
Forecast highlights…
*** A Red Flag Warning for critical fire conditions is out until 9pm tonight. ***
*** Monday evening into Wednesday evening there’s a chance for isolated afternoon showers and thunderstorms. ***
*** Thursday and Friday will be sunny and dry. ***
*** Next weekend isolated afternoon showers and thunderstorms. ***
Monday through Wednesday… We are going to catch the northwest edge of a surge of monsoon moisture. There’s a chance for isolated showers and thunderstorms each day. The best chance is Tuesday afternoon into Tuesday evening.
Temps… Highs will be in the mid-70s to mid-80s and lows will be near 40 to near 50.
Winds… Monday afternoon gusts will be 20-25mph. Tuesday and Wednesday afternoon gusts will be around 20mph. Isolated higher gusts are possible near showers and thunderstorms.
Thursday through next weekend… Thursday and Friday will be mostly sunny and dry.
Next weekend another surge of monsoon moisture and instability will lead to a slight chance for an isolated afternoon shower or thunderstorm. I think most of us will stay dry.
Temps… Thursday highs will be in the high 70s to high 80s and lows will be near 40 to near 50. For the rest of this period, highs will be in the low 80s to low 90s and lows will be in the low 40s to low 50s.
Winds… Afternoon gusts will be 15-20mph. Next weekend, isolated stronger gusts are possible near showers and thunderstorms.
The 8-14 day period… We’ll be in the “sputter” phase of the monsoon where it’s trying to set up and is weak. There will be hit and miss afternoon showers and thunderstorms. Precip amounts will be light and spotty.
The next post will be on Tuesday.
