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.

NWS Phoenix, AZ wrote its last area forecast discussion before this wind advisory went out at Jan 5, 10:10 PM MST, 3 hours 28 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jan 5, 10:10 PM MST, 3 hours 28 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Phoenix AZ
1010 PM MST Sun Jan 5 2025

.Update...Updated Aviation Discussion

&&

.SYNOPSIS...
Dry, tranquil weather conditions will persist into the start of
the workweek before a weather system brings unsettled weather to
the region Tuesday into Wednesday. This weather system will bring
increasing winds, cooler temperatures, and increasing precipitation
chances during this time. The best chances for precipitation will
favor the Arizona high terrain. Temperatures mid to late this
week will trend cooler to near to slightly below normal levels.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
The latest satellite WV imagery and objective analysis show a well-
defined upper low over the central CONUS, while the Desert Southwest
is under the influence of an upper ridge situated over the eastern
Pacific. With this ridge in place, dry, tranquil weather is in place
with only some passing high clouds. Temperatures today and tomorrow
will remain near to slightly above seasonal normals as highs across
the lower deserts top out in the upper 60s to low 70s each
afternoon.

For the start of the new workweek, the ridge will amplify over the
eastern Pacific with strong positive height anomalies extending well
north into western Canada. As this occurs, a shortwave trough,
currently seen on WV imagery off the Pacific Northwest coast, will
quickly dive southward along the eastern periphery of the ridge.
Ensemble and deterministic guidance show good agreement in this
shortwave deepening into a closed low as it digs into the southwest
CONUS going into the Tuesday-Wednesday timeframe. This will lead to
unsettled weather conditions across the region, including increasing
winds, cooler temperatures, and increasing precipitation chances.

Winds will begin to ramp up across southeast California and along
the Lower Colorado River Valley starting Tuesday as the low
tracks near/over western Arizona. Heading into Wednesday, the
closed low will dip further southward into northern Mexico and
thus will allow for gusty winds to expand across Arizona. Wind
gusts Tuesday and Wednesday are expected to climb upwards of 20-35
mph while a few areas, particularly along and west of the
Colorado River as well as the higher terrain east of Phoenix, may
see gusts climb to around 40 mph. Will continue to monitor the
potential need for wind advisories for some areas as we get
closer. Some dust prone areas could see some dust getting kicked
up with these strong winds, particularly across southeast
California. Aside from the winds, precipitation chances will also
increase across parts of Arizona with this weather system.
However, the inland trajectory and positioning of the low will
limit the amount of moisture we see into our area. Thus, this will
limit the amount of precipitation we see with the highest PoPs
remaining more focused across the Arizona high terrain. Latest WPC
QPF ranges anywhere from up to a few hundredths across portions
of the south-central Arizona lower deserts to upwards of around
0.10- 0.20" across the southern Gila County high terrain. As snow
levels fall, some snow showers are expected to develop across
southern Gila County Wednesday, but any accumulation will remain
light. Temperatures Tuesday and Wednesday are expected to still be
near to slightly above normal with highs in the mid to upper 60s
to around 70 degrees in some places. Cooler temperatures settle in
for the latter half of the week.

.PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
The majority of the ensemble membership now show the closed low
meandering through northern Mexico through the end of the week
before moving at a quicker pace eastward through the southern and
eastern CONUS next weekend. Even though precipitation chances should
end completely by Thursday and the overall winds will become
lighter, the main story for the second half of the week and likely
extending into next weekend will be the cooldown in temperatures as
northerly flow aloft and potentially another shortwave moving on the
back side of the closed low will result in near to slightly below
normal temperatures. The latest NBM deterministic shows high
temperatures across the lower deserts of south-central AZ remaining
stuck in the mid 60s with slightly warmer readings to near 70
degrees across the western deserts. The combination of clear skies
and light winds will set the stage for overnight and early morning
low temperatures to become quite chilly with most locations
across the lower deserts dropping down into the mid 30s to low
40s. Some of the colder rural locations are likely to see
temperatures dip down to near freezing for multiple days later
this week and next weekend.

.AVIATION...Updated at 0510Z.

South Central Arizona including KPHX, KIWA, KSDL, and KDVT:

No aviation concerns are expected during the TAF period under
FEW to SCT mid and high clouds. Winds will continue to follow
their typical diurnal tendencies with speeds generally aob 7 kt.
Extended periods of light and variable to calm winds are also
expected.

Southeast California/Southwest Arizona including KIPL and KBLH:

No aviation concerns are expected during the TAF period under
FEW to occasionally SCT mid and high clouds. Familiar light and
diurnal trends will continue over the next 24 hours with extended
periods of variable to calm conditions being common.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
Continued dry conditions along with slightly above normal
temperatures will persist through the early portion of the
upcoming week. Winds will generally remain on the light side
through Monday. MinRH values will generally remain in the teens
through Tuesday before increasing to above 20% across most areas
by midweek as moisture increases. A weather system is expected to
move across the region during the Tuesday through Wednesday
timeframe, delivering breezy to locally windy conditions as well
as some increased precipitation chances, mainly focused across the
higher terrain areas of south-central AZ. Temperatures during mid
to late week will trend cooler to near to slightly below normal
levels.
