What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this wind advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

Area forecast discussion, May 26, 10:57 PM PDT, 1 hour 5 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Phoenix AZ 1057 PM MST Thu May 26 2022 .UPDATE...Update Aviation Discussion. && .SYNOPSIS... High pressure will strengthen over the region today into Friday while high temperatures warm to around 105 degrees for a good portion of the lower deserts. Over the weekend, a rather noticeable cooldown is expected, pushing high temperatures to below 100 degrees by Sunday, then well down into the 90`s early next week. Along with the cooler temperatures, gusty winds and high fire danger levels can be expected. Dry conditions and mostly clear skies will prevail through next week. && .DISCUSSION... The ridge of high pressure has now fully moved over our region with clear skies prevailing region wide. The warming trend will continue today as heights aloft peak tonight into early Friday. Widespread lower desert highs of 103-106 degrees are still forecast for today and Friday, resulting in moderate heat risk but falling well short of any daily records (given the fact that ENS Standardized Anomalies only reach +1.6 SD above climo late tonight…which are rather modest values). Fortunately, this boost in temperatures will be short-lived as a large upper level trough currently approaching the Pacific Northwest begins to move into the Western U.S. starting tonight. By Saturday, latest ensemble guidance still shows the center of the trough moving over the Pacific Northwest with the base of the trough extending as far south as northern Arizona. After the very warm temperatures today and Friday, the main forecast concern then shifts toward an increase in winds beginning Saturday and continuing into Sunday. As the trough approaches our region from the northwest on Saturday, rapid height falls and an increasing pressure gradient over our region will result in a return of widespread breezy to windy conditions. The strongest winds Saturday will be focused more across southeast California and across the Arizona high country where latest EFS ensemble guidance and NBM output is indicating that advisory level winds will be likely, mainly over SW Imperial County and the Imperial Valley. The focus for the strongest winds on Sunday moves over South-Central AZ as the center of the trough enters the Great Basin, increasing the gradient further over our region. Guidance is now suggesting winds easily gusting to 25-30 mph across the lower deserts of South- Central AZ on Sunday afternoon, with gusts up into the 35-45 mph range over the higher terrain areas north and east of Phoenix. Temperature are still expected to take a dive during the Sun-Tue period as cooler air moves into the region as 500 mb height anomalies fall into the -1.0 to -1.5 SD range below climo and 850mb temp anomalies fall into the -2.0 to -2.5 SD range below climo. This will likely result in lower desert highs falling to the mid-90’s across SE CA/SW AZ and the lower 90’s across South-Central AZ. These well-below normal highs combined with lows in the very pleasant upper 50’s to upper 60’s (and a very dry airmass) will mean a very nice break in the heat for this time of year! With model ensembles still mostly favoring the trough exiting well to the northeast of the region by next Wednesday, temperatures should warm back to or even a few degrees above normal during the latter half of next week, but for now highs are shown to most likely max out at around 105 degrees at some point late next week before trending slightly lower again into the following weekend. && .AVIATION...Updated at 0555Z. South-Central Arizona including KPHX, KIWA, KSDL, and KDVT: Starting off with mostly light W winds with the latest guidance advocating a switch to the E around 09Z, along with mostly light windspeeds. A late morning switch to the SW on Fri with occasional gusts into the teens by mid to late afternoon and into the evening. Clear to mostly clear skies into Fri morning with increasing high clouds by midday Fri and becoming partly to occasionally mostly cloudy with SCT v BKN high clouds by Fri night and into Sat morning. Southeast California/Southwest Arizona including KIPL and KBLH: Elevated W-NW winds AOB 11 kt tonight at KIPL. Lighter winds by early Fri will then favor a normal diurnal pattern followed by a mid afternoon switch to the SW on Fri. Then gusty sundowner winds with W gusts upwards of 25 kt expected by very late Fri afternoon. At KBLH, winds continue to favor a S component. Mostly light S winds will go light and variable later tonight. Elevated S flow resumes mid morning Fri with stronger gusts upwards of 20 kt beginning by early to mid afternoon and remaining elevated into the night. Mostly clear skies are expected to persist before increasing SCT high clouds move in Fri. && .FIRE WEATHER... Strong high pressure over the region will result in above normal temperatures over the next few days with highs above 100 degrees across the lower deserts. Afternoon MinRHs will range between 6-12% through Saturday, while overnight MaxRHs recover to between 20-35% across most areas. Relatively light winds can be expected through Friday, however, some periodic afternoon gusts into the teens are likely. Another (rather strong for this time of year) weather disturbance moving across the western states over the weekend into early next week will bring widespread windy conditions Saturday and Sunday with wind gusts commonly in a 25-30 mph range, locally higher across the western deserts and the Arizona high terrain. Although RHs will improve slightly by Sunday as temperatures drop below 100 degrees, the increased winds and continued dry conditions are likely to result in high fire danger levels this weekend. Fire danger levels will likely approach criteria thresholds over the higher terrain to the north and east of Phoenix on Sunday. Lighter winds, warmer temperatures and lower fire danger levels can be expected early next week as high pressure begins to build back over the region. && .PSR WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
