Happy Friday Eve! (it makes the weekend seem closer. trust me on this one)

After a cold start this morning temperatures will rebound a bit this afternoon with sunshine. Even warmer tomorrow between systems. Our next system won’t really be ours. It will miss us well to the north this weekend, but we will see more high clouds (for possible sunrise and sunset enhancement) and breezes. Cooling off slightly this weekend too, and who knows, maybe even a sprinkle on Sunday. A mix of clouds and Sun continues into next week with highs slightly below average for this tome of year. Our next real chance for rain MAY be the end of next week. That is beyond the seven day forecast, so we’ll burn that bridge when we get to it. Stay tuned!

Sunny today with a high in the upper 50s. Clear tonight near freezing. Sunny upper 60s tomorrow. Partly sunny Saturday upper 60s. Partly sunny Sunday mid 60s. Mostly sunny Monday low 60s. Partly sunny Tuesday low 60s. Upper 60s Wednesday. Enjoy!

As one storm exits stage east, another approacheth from the NW. Yesterday’s rain showers pushed us over a half inch for the last two days officially at the airport. Some areas in the Metro picking up an inch or so! As always, your individual mileage may vary. Our next storm is bringing Old Man Winter back to Tucson’s Weather. (why is Winter an old man?) The National Weather Service has issued a WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY above 6,000 feet starting this evening at 5:00 lasting through 11:00 tomorrow morning. Be advised, there will be winter weather above 6,000 feet. Summerhaven is expecting 4 to 8 inches from the storm. And. There may be some light accumulations as low as 4,000 feet tomorrow morning! Can we push that down to Corona de Tucson, Vail, SaddleBrooke? I’m not gonna say it can’t happen, but more likely a dusting in Oracle perhaps. (maybe) There is a lot of moisture here thanx to the SW flow ahead of the storm, so rain is likely in the Metro tonight and tomorrow morning with lingering showers into the afternoon. COLD (you know it’s COLD when we break out the BOLD!) behind the storm with clearing skies tomorrow night and a low in the upper 20s Thursday morning! brrrr. Near freezing Friday morning. Highs only in the low to mid 50s the next couple of days. Despite a warming trend through the weekend, highs near or slight below average for this time of year with sunshine. Stay tuned!

Mostly cloudy today with a 20% chance for showers and a high in the low 60s. Showers likely tonight with a low in the low 40s. Showers likely tomorrow morning with isolated showers perhaps lingering into the afternoon with a high only in the low 50s. Mostly clear Wednesday night with a Thursday morning low in the upper 20s! Sunny Thursday mid 50s. Freezing ish Friday morning with an afternoon high in the upper 60s. Mostly sunny upper 60s Saturday. Mid 60s Sunday. Partly sunny Monday mid 60s. Enjoy!

Happy Monday! Not an oxymoron not around here…

I woke up to the weirdest dream. There was fog and it was drizzling. It reminded me of growing up in Oregon. And you were there, and you were there, and you were…

Yeah, fog and drizzle this morning! Super cool 😎 It’s all part of the storm near the northern California coast pulling moisture northward. The snow level is way high with rain falling in the Catalinas. The light rain should shift eastward later this morning and the fog will lift and we can see clearly now the rain is gone. But. Not for long. Our next storm approacheth and this one is bringing Winter back to southern Arizona. Good chance for showers and mountain snow tomorrow night and Wednesday. Snow levels crashing down to 5,500 feet or so before it’s done. An inch or three possible in Summerhaven. A chilly rain (mmm chili) for Tuesday (tomorrow) night and Wednesday with a high only in the low 50s. Clearing out Wednesday night with freezing temperatures for the Metro both Thursday and Friday mornings. Sunshine for the weekend, but highs below average in the low to mid 60s. Stay tuned!

Scattered showers and patchy fog this morning becoming partly sunny with a high in the low 60s. Isolated showers tonight (maybe) with a low in the mid 40s. 10% Tuesday otherwise partly sunny low 60s. 40% Tuesday night mid 40s. 30% Wednesday low 50s. Mostly clear Wednesday night 32ish. Sunny Thursday mid 50s. Freezing Friday morning. Sunny mid 60s Friday afternoon. Mostly sunny Saturday mid 60s. Low 60s Sunday.

Yesterday’s sprinkles and rain chances overnight were greatly exaggerated! However. The cold front is still on it’s way. It’s just fashionably late. Hopefully it will bring the seven layer dip for the big game! (mostly cloudy with a chance for guacamole?!) Well, it is bringing rain showers as advertised. In fact it was light raining on the deck just a bit ago. (hashtag #notfakenews) The slow movement of the weakening storm means showers lingering into tomorrow. Super Sunday won’t be a super soaker, but still expecting a tenth to four tenths of an inch of rain in the Metro. An inch of rain possible in the mountains with the snow level way up there above 8,500 feet! Snow mixing in with the rain today in Summerhaven with snow showers through Wednesday night, but no real accumulations expected until Wednesday and Wednesday night. A break in the action Monday night and Tuesday between systems. Our next storm due in here Tuesday night through Wednesday looks colder, but not as much moisture. Rain showers in the valleys and lower mountain snow. Colder to end the week behind our next storm with lows back down to freezing in Tucson Friday morning. Then some warming next weekend. Stay tuned!

Showers today with a high in the low 60s. Scattered showers tonight low near 50ish. Scattered showers tomorrow low 60s. Partly sunny Tuesday low 60s. 30% Tuesday night mid 40s. 40% Wednesday low 50s. 20% Wednesday night becoming partly cloudy low 30s. Sunny Thursday low 50s. Freezing Friday morning and sunny during the day low 60s. Sunny Saturday mid 60s. Enjoy!
