Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Flagstaff AZ
342 PM MST Sat Nov 1 2025

.SYNOPSIS...Dry and warm conditions with generally light winds will
continue through the weekend and most of next week.

&&

.DISCUSSION...A large-scale ridge containing well above normal
500 mb hghts will begin to decrease in amplitude Sunday night as a
weak s/wv moves into the ridge from the west. Daytime temperatures
will peak on Sunday. Upper level flow then becomes more zonal for
the remainder of the week, with a few s/wvs to our north kicking up
breezes from time to time. However, it will be dry and hghts are
still above normal.

This means daytime highs will stay above normal, peaking on Sunday.
This will be especially true over higher terrain and areas south of
the Mogollon Rim. Strong cooling overnight and lack of decent mixing
will keep areas north of the Mogollon Rim a bit cooler, but still
just above normal.

Precipitation chances? None to speak of, for at least another week.
