Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Southwest and South-Central
Arizona and Southeast California
National Weather Service Phoenix AZ
302 PM MST Thu Jun 27 2024

.DISCUSSION...
Drier conditions will persist through Saturday. A few showers and
lightning strikes have occurred over eastern Gila County so far
today, but the potential for these continues to decrease as we
head into this evening. Chances for thunderstorms return to the
high terrain of Southern Gila County by Saturday but remain below
20 percent. Winds will generally be light, below 15 mph sustained
through Saturday, with gusts upwards of 20 to 25 mph each
afternoon and evening. Temperatures will remain above normal,
ranging from 107 to 112 degrees across the lower deserts through
Saturday. MinRHs will generally bottom out around 15 to 25% each
afternoon, and overnight recoveries will be fair at around 30 to
50%, except slightly lower in portions of Southeastern California
Friday night.

...Thunderstorms imply gusty winds...
