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
