Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Tucson AZ
246 AM MST Mon Jun 15 2020

.SYNOPSIS...Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms
will be possible the next few days, mainly east of Tucson in the
afternoon and early evening hours. Dry the second half of the
week with afternoon highs running a few degrees above average.

&&

.DISCUSSION...Southeast Arizona is caught between a trough of low
pressure through much of the rest of the region to our northwest,
and high pressure from northern Mexico through the central plains.
A relatively narrow fetch of moisture up the Sierra Madres and
into western and central New Mexico continues to generate
afternoon and early evening thunderstorms, with vigorous outflows
from those storms pushing into eastern areas.

For today, a weaker flow should see moisture push a little further
west than yesterday. Areas east of Tucson, including Cochise,
Graham and Greenlee counties should be most active, but we could
see some buildups as far west as the Catalinas and Rincons around
Tucson.

Drying the rest of the week from an increasing westerly flow as
the trough shifts north of our area and the high center
reconsolidates south of us. This is a bad pattern for additional
moisture transport, so our early season storms should shut down
by Wednesday or Thursday. As this happens, temperatures will ramp
back up to several degrees above average late in the week and
through the coming weekend.

&&

.AVIATION...Valid through 16/12Z.
Isolated to scattered -TSRA/-SHRA from KTUS-KOLS eastward this
afternoon, dissipating during the evening. Outflow winds with brief
gusts to 30-40 kts possible near TSRA. SKC through mid morning then
FEW-BKN clouds 10k-15k ft MSL and FEW-BKN clouds 20k-25k ft MSL this
afternoon into the evening. Surface winds variable less than 10 kts
through the morning. This afternoon winds will be SWLY 8-12 kts with
gusts to 20 kts, becoming variable less than 10 kts again after
sunset. Aviation discussion not updated for TAF amendments.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...Isolated to scattered thunderstorms from Tucson
eastward this afternoon and evening. Main threats will be lightning
and gusty outflow winds. Tuesday just a slight chance of storms in
Cochise County and the White Mountains. Thereafter expect dry
conditions through the weekend. Winds will be breezy mainly west of
Tucson this afternoon around 15 mph with normal afternoon gustiness
elsewhere. Tuesday and Wednesday, expect southwest winds 15-20 mph
with gusts to 30 mph area wide. It is possible some locales in
central and western Pima County briefly reach critical fire weather
thresholds Tuesday afternoon. After Wednesday expect winds out of
the southwest/west less than 15 mph with some afternoon gusts.
