20-FOOT WIND FORECAST OF `LIGHT WINDS` INDICATES MAINLY
TERRAIN DRIVEN WINDS
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
.DISCUSSION...Dry and hot conditions are expected across
southeast Arizona through early next week. Generally single digit
min RH values in the valleys, with mountain locations in the 10-18
percent range. 20-foot winds will be 15 mph or less from Tucson
westward, with occasional afternoon/early evening gusts to around
20 mph due to the strong surface heating. East of Tucson, breezy
afternoon and early evening 20-foot winds are expected in the Gila
River Valley today with peak wind speeds of 12-18 mph and gusts
to around 30 mph. Expect similar speeds from Tucson eastward
Monday and Tuesday as a weak weather system moves through. The
strongest winds will again be in the upper Gila River valley near
Safford, with the possibility of a few hours of near critical fire
weather conditions.
