Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Flagstaff AZ
949 AM MST Fri Dec 5 2025

.SYNOPSIS...Expect dry conditions and warming daytime temperatures
well into next week.

&&

.DISCUSSION...A weak band of ascent most associated with differential
vorticity advection is sweeping through bringing some virga
showers this morning. These showers are quick moving and with
plenty of dry air in the low-levels, little to no impacts are
expected at the surface.

Otherwise, high pressure continues to strengthen to our west.
Northern AZ will stay out of the storm track through at least the
upcoming week. Expect mostly clear skies and a warming trend
through the period. Slightly breezier conditions expected along
the terrain on Saturday as elevated 700mb winds pass overhead, but
winds could stay light in valleys due to shallow mixing. Ridging
along the west coast will slowly push more inland, and there is
the potential for daytime highs to reach well above normal by the
middle of next week.

&&

.AVIATION...Friday 05/18Z through Saturday 06/18Z...VFR conditions
are forecast. Winds will be variable at 5-10 kts.


OUTLOOK...Saturday 06/18Z through Monday 08/18Z...VFR conditions
are forecast. Winds west at 5-15 kts Saturday afternoon will
