.SYNOPSIS...Dry and warm conditions will continue through the
coming week, along with occasional afternoon breezes.

&&

.DISCUSSION...Quasi-zonal flow sets in over Arizona, keeping dry
conditions and slightly above-normal temperatures in store for
northern Arizona for much of the upcoming week. Breezy afternoon
winds also look likely through Thursday, with occasional shortwave
passes to the north. High pressure looks to then build off the
California Coast by the weekend. No chances for precipitation look
to exist in the next 8-10 days, but ensemble guidance does offer
a faint glimmer of hope with a pattern change late next week...time
will tell however.
