Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Flagstaff AZ
355 AM MST Sun Jun 9 2024

.SYNOPSIS...Seasonable temperatures today and Monday will trend
back upward by Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Expect mainly dry
conditions, aside from isolated showers and thunderstorms over
eastern Arizona this afternoon.

&&

.DISCUSSION...Today, a weak s/wv will interact with our former
ridge, now displaced into New Mexico. Some mid-level moisture is
noted advecting into eastern Arizona this morning. This will allow
for a slight increase in PW, which may be all this s/wv needs to
generate some isolated convection this afternoon. Nothing impactful
is expected.

That is about all the action we see this forecast period, aside from
another warming trend due mid-week. Current solutions have us right
on the border of another EHW, Tuesday looks marginal, but one may be
needed for Wednesday. We will wait another day on this, potentially
issuing heat products for next week Sunday night, coinciding with
our weekly partner emails.

That`s it for now, in summary, seasonable and mainly dry through
Monday, then heating up again.
