Forecast for Tuesday, December 17, 2019
It’s freezing out there! Well. For most locations. Lows so far this morning range from the upper 20s to the mid 30s with a crisp 32 degrees at the airport as I scribble this out on my PC. A FREEZE WARNING remains until 9:00 a.m., so hopefully the teenagers were let back in the house last night. The big weather stories are; the wind for the next couple of days, a warm weekend, and a pattern change that should open the door to rain and mountain snow just in time for Christmas! Hold on to your chapeau, here we go!
Sunny, breezy (OK, windy, depending on where you are), and cool today with east winds 15-25 mph gusting to around 35 and a high in the upper 50s.
Breezier tonight with winds gusting to near 40 (for some) and a low in the upper 30s.
Partly sunny and breezy fo’ sheezy tomorrow. East winds gusting to near 40 and a high in the low 60s. Winds relax Thursday with sunshine and a high in the low 60s. Sunny and warmer as we head into the weekend. Upper 60s Friday. Mostly sunny mid 70s Saturday! Partly sunny mid 70s Sunday! A slight chance for showers Monday as our weather pattern starts to change. Monday’s high in the low 70s. Stay tuned!

Happy Monday! (it could happen) Cooler and drier air is settling into Arizona and as a result it is cooler and drier. (weird, I know) It’ll be chilly most of the day today and tomorrow. (mmm Chili’s! (maybe they should sponsor Tucson Weather?!)) Cold tonight with a FREEZE WARNING in effect. Be warned. It’s probably gonna freeze. Breezy tomorrow and Wednesday with a bit of warming starting Wednesday. The last weekend of hustling and bustling before Christmas looks great! Still watching for some sort of storm for Christmas Eve/Christmas Day. The timing, track, and strength are all still up in the air. (see what I did there?) Even though I’m heading to Texas for the holiday, I’ll still keep you posted. (pretty sure they have the internet in Texas) Stay tuned!
Sunny and cool today with a high in the upper 50s. FREEZE WARNING tonight with a low of freezing. Colder near washes and on the NE side.

Christmas is approachething! A snow storm getting its act together in Colorado and moving into the plains will miss us well to the north. However. It will drag some cooler air into the Grand Canyon State. Sometimes it’s good to be below average. You know. If it helps get you in the Christmasy mood. It’ll stay dry for now, but Christmas Eve is looking interesting for maybe some rain and mountain snow. A white Christmas in Summerhaven? That is a ways away. We’ll keep you posted as we go. Here’s what we are more certain of…
Mostly sunny today with a few high clouds for possible sunset enhancement. High in the mid 60s. Chilly (mmm chili) tomorrow morning with a low in the mid 30s. Mostly sunny tomorrow near 60ish. More chilly (yes please!) Tuesday morning near freezing. Tuesday’s high in the low 60s. Partly sunny Wednesday mid 60s. Sunny Thursday mid 60s. Upper 60s Friday. Mostly sunny low 70s Saturday. Enjoy!

(so I’ve heard) A storm missing us to the north will usher in a bit of a chill as it exits stage east by tomorrow. Could see some freezing temperatures in the metro near the washes and other colder prone areas Tuesday morning. Yeppers. Serving up some chilly! (mmm chili) A few high clouds for possible sunrise and sunset enhancement as well. A storm late in the week will miss us to the north keeping us from warming up too much.

It’s Friiidaaay!!! the 13th. Friday the 13th. No worries. Remember, Monday the 13th is MUCH worser! At least we don’t have giant spiders wondering around at night like in Minecraft! That would be terrifying. Don’t even get me started on Creepers, but I digress. Back to the Tucson Weather…
Nice warm up into the weekend before we cool off next week. Let’s take a look, shall we? We shall.
Sunny today and tomorrow with highs in the mid 70s! Lows in the upper 40s. Mostly sunny Sunday upper 60s.
A storm to our north and very cold air spilling into the Plains will filter colder air into Arizona. East winds kicking up a bit next week as well. Chilly (mmm chili) in the mornings and cool days. Another system headed our way late in the week.
Sunny Monday low 60s. Mid to upper 30s Tuesday morning. Sunny Tuesday low 60s. Mostly cloudy low 60s Wednesday. Mostly cloudy mid 60s Thursday. Will we see rain and mountain snow Thursday into next weekend? Maybe, but right now the National Weather Service is taking a wait and see how things develop as we get closer attitude. Stay tuned!
