Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Southwest and South-Central
Arizona and Southeast California
National Weather Service Phoenix AZ
149 AM MST Wed Jun 26 2024

.DISCUSSION...
The weather pattern through the rest of the week will allow for
drying conditions and much lower chances for rain. Isolated
thunderstorm chances today are expected to be limited to the
higher terrain north and east of Phoenix before chances basically
come to an end starting Thursday. MinRHs will lower back into the
teens across the lower deserts by Thursday, while overnight
recoveries remain good at 35-50%. Winds will be fairly light today
with some periodic afternoon breeziness, before increasing more
on Thursday with afternoon gusts commonly reaching 20 mph.

...Thunderstorms imply gusty winds...

Note...Additional Fire Weather Forecast information can be found
in the Area Forecast Discussion. See product PHXAFDPSR.
