Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Tucson AZ
228 PM MST Thu Jul 25 2019

.SYNOPSIS...Isolated showers and thunderstorms through the evening
hours today. Thereafter, a subtle shift in the weather pattern will
result in limited thunderstorm activity the Friday through the
weekend. However, an upswing in thunderstorms will return early next
week. High temperatures will trend upward through Saturday followed
by moderating temperatures early next week.

&&

.DISCUSSION...Isolated showers and thunderstorms were developing
mainly in the mountains of southeast Arizona early this afternoon. A
few have managed to track westward into the valleys, especially in
Cochise county. Still expecting further development of thunderstorms
this afternoon and continuing through the evening hours. Ample
moisture supported locally heavy rainfall. In fact, a rain gauge on
Mount Lemmon reported over one inch of rain in less than one hour.
In addition to the heavy downpour potential, wet microbursts will be
possible in the valleys again today. Thereafter, the upper high that
has been centered over the Four Corners region will shift south to a
position over east-central Arizona by tomorrow morning. Models
progged the upper high to become centered over the state this
weekend. This will result in somewhat limited thunderstorm activity
and hotter daytime temperatures. However, models showed the upper
high becoming reestablished over the Four Corners area early next
week. That said, there should be an upswing in thunderstorm activity
again early next week with high temperatures moderating a bit.

&&

.AVIATION...Valid through 27/00Z.
Isolated -TSRA/-SHRA continuing into the evening, mainly to the
south and west of KTUS. The bulk of -TSRA/-SHRA should end around
26/06Z. Expect FEW-SCT clouds 10k-14k ft MSL throughout the period
with a SCT-BKN deck at 25k ft MSL this afternoon and evening. Gusty
outflow winds occur near thunderstorms, otherwise, winds wly/nwly
this afternoon at 6-10 knots. After 26/06Z winds will be variable
less than 6 knots again. Thunderstorm and shower chances decrease
for Friday afternoon. Aviation discussion not updated for TAF
amendments.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...Isolated thunderstorms and showers continue into the
evening, mainly to the south and west of Tucson. White Mountains
will likely see scattered coverage. Thunderstorm and shower chances
decrease Friday afternoon and are expected to the south of Tucson,
Cochise County, and the White Mountains. This weekend into early
next week more moisture will be in place leading to isolated to
scattered thunderstorms from central Pima County eastward. Near
thunderstorms winds will be gusty and erratic. Otherwise, 20-foot
winds will be primarily terrain driven at less than 15 mph.

&&

.TWC WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...None.
