Arizona and Southeast California
National Weather Service Phoenix AZ
1250 PM MST Fri Jun 21 2024

.DISCUSSION...
Moisture will continue to increase across the region into the
upcoming weekend bringing daily chances for afternoon
thunderstorms, with the best chances expected across the higher
terrain areas of south-central AZ. MinRH values this afternoon
will range between 30-40% across the far eastern districts to
between 10-15% across the western districts. MinRH values will
then increase for Saturday, ranging from 40% across the eastern
districts to 20-25% across the western districts, with similar
levels through Sunday as well. Winds will follow their typical
daily tendencies, with gusty outflows from any thunderstorm
activity anticipated over the next several days. High pressure is
expected to strengthen over the region by early to mid next week
leading to even hotter temperatures along with slightly drier
conditions.

...Thunderstorms imply gusty winds...
