Monsoon 2018 is lurking, but not here just yet. First we have to deal with more heat this week. Breezy and cooler yesterday with a high 2 degrees below the average of 102. High pressure building back in this week with highs peaking near 107 tomorrow and Wednesday. As the high moves to the east we’ll start to see more moisture with a slight chance for storms Friday and Saturday mainly south and east of Tucson with highs in the metro back down near 102 and 100 respectively. Then. It’s a slight chance for storms in Tucson Sunday with a high near 101. We are getting closer! Until then, be cool. 😎

A plume of dust from Sonora, Mexico moved into SE Arizona last night for a dusty start to your Sunday. When I saw it to the west at sunset last night I thought it was (cue Stanford Townsend Band) smoke from a distant fire! The dust will slowly settle and it’ll be another sunny day. A system missing us well to the north will kick up some afternoon breezes and cool us off slightly from yesterday’s high of 102. High pressure building back in will have us back on the hot side by the middle of the week. Everybody into the pool! Moisture increasing by Friday into the weekend for a chance of a few storms mainly south and east of Tucson. Be cool.

Sunny today near 100. Low 70s tonight. 102ish tomorrow. 106 Tuesday. 107 Wednesday. 105 Thursday. 103 Friday. 102 Saturday.
