Our old pal high pressure has returned and he is bringing gifts! Sunshine and warmth for all the good boys and girls of southern Arizona. Be sure and thank him by heading to the park or tormenting your friends and family in colder climes. Make hay while the sun shines! He can’t stick around too long. Sunny days in the 70s in December. There are worse things. A series of weak storms will be moving through through the weekend. No real threat for rain or mountain snow, but they will knock some sense into our temperatures. Even then, still on the warm side for this time of year. Also some high cloudiness for possible sunrise and sunset enhancement. That is always nice. Then a series of stronger and colder storms will bring a chance for rain and mountain snow starting Christmas night and continuing through next week. Stay tuned!

Sunny and warm today with a high near 76ish. Mostly clear tonight low 40s. Mostly sunny tomorrow with a high in the upper 70s (the record is 80. Let’s not and say we did). Sunny Saturday mid 70s. Sunny Sunday low 70s. Near 70ish Monday. Mostly sunny upper 60s Christmas Day. 20% chance for showers Christmas night mid 30s. 20% Wednesday upper 50s. Enjoy!
