539 FXUS65 KFGZ 241120 AFDFGZ Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Flagstaff AZ 420 AM MST Mon Nov 24 2025 .SYNOPSIS...Warmer and dry conditions return for Monday and will last through the week. There is potential for another storm system to impact the area over the holiday weekend. && .DISCUSSION...Our low pressure system from the weekend is already exiting eastern Colorado this morning, with low clouds and fog left in its wake over Arizona. Expect the low clouds and fog to burn off by mid-morning, with warmer and sunnier conditions for much of the remainder of the week as a ridge sets in. The looming question though, is this. Will the ridge break down late in the holiday weekend and cause travel issues? There is certainly a possibility of that, but teleconnections are not very clear and the pattern may end up resembling a dry, northwesterly flow that can be indicative of La Nina. Something to be aware of, keep checking the forecast for your travel plans. && .AVIATION...Monday 24/12Z through Tuesday 25/12Z...Areas of low CIGS and BR/FG/FZFG producing LIFR/IFR/MVFR dissipating by 15Z-16Z. Otherwise, VFR and light winds. OUTLOOK...Tuesday 25/12Z through Thursday 27/12Z...VFR and light winds. && .FIRE WEATHER...Monday and Tuesday...Expect drying conditions and rising temperatures.
