Forecast for Sunday, June 25, 2017
Outflow winds from storms to our east have brought us clouds and moisture to start the day. As a result we are off to a warmer than the last few days start to the day. Thanx to the moisture increase we are looking at isolated to scattered storms this afternoon and evening! Expect gusty winds near storms but a few folks will also get a nice shower, hopefully near you. Today is also our last day of the EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING that has been in effect all week. Tedious and buh bye. Moisture lingers into tomorrow and then our epic high pressure retreats south as a couple of systems move through the Great Basin. That will put us in a dry westerly flow drying us out some most of this week and also “cooling” us to near normal highs for this time of year. Tropical Storm Dora will move to near the tip of the Baja Peninsula. That moisture will move into Mexico priming the pump for the start of Monsoon 2017 for reals! Stay tuned!
Partly cloudy today with a chance for afternoon storms and a high near 111.
Partly cloudy tonight with scattered storms before midnight and a low near 80.
Mostly sunny tomorrow with isolated afternoon storms and a high near 107. Sunny near 107 Tuesday. 104 Wednesday. 103 Thursday. 105 Friday. Chance for storms Saturday 106.

Forecast for Saturday, June 24, 2017
Today’s record is 113 and we’ll be close! Drier air has moved in with high pressure restrengthening over our heads means another hot day. EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING fixin’ to come to and end tomorrow night and good riddance! Moisture on the increase tomorrow into Monday with a few storms about, hopefully one or two near you. Then high pressure weakening and moving off giving way to a westerly flow that will dry us out and knock our temperatures closer to average for this time of year (102). Looks like a surge of moisture after next weekend. Stay tuned!

Forecast for Friday, June 23, 2017
High pressure losing a little more steam today but still rather hot with an EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING in effect through Sunday. High pressure restrengthens this weekend for hotter highs back near 110, but moisture on the increase as well. Monsoon 2017 still warming up so we won’t be in the deep moisture for locally heavy rain or anything like that. More like a chance for storms with more gusty winds and lightning than rain. Someone’s is gonna get rained on. Might as well be you! Thunderstorm chances continue through Wednesday and we “cool” as we go. Drier by the end of next week. Enjoy!

Forecast for Wednesday, June 21, 2017
One more day of record heat and then we “cool” a bit as we head towards the weekend. You know. If you can call 108 and 110 “cooling”, but considering yesterday was 116 I guess we can! The EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING has been extended through Sunday, but that should be the extent of it. Some moisture still hanging around today but it looks like the best chance of a few storms will be to our east. We may get some of the gusty outflow winds this evening. Moisture on the increase next week and temperatures cooling some more. Looks like Monsoon 2017 is getting warmed up!
