Forecast for Tuesday, April 28, 2020

Daily Almanac,

Nice! Only 96 today. Sure, that’s 10 degrees above average for this time of year, but it is 1 degree cooler than yesterday (so there’s that) and much better than the insanity ahead. Low 60s to start the day tomorrow. Tomorrows high near 101 which is 1 short of the record. Thursday will set a new record for April 30th and if 104 comes true then it will tie the hottest day ever recorded in April in Tucson’s recorded history. (I guess no one had pens or thermometers before 1896?) No wonder the National Weather Service has issued an EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING for Thursday. Be warned. The heat will be excessive. Cooling off to near 100ish on Friday. Upper 90s Saturday. Mid 90s Sunday and Monday. Enjoy!

Missed it by that much. Maxwell Smart’s girlfriend, Agent 99 (i’ve been waiting so long) tied the record high yesterday but failed to break the psychological barrier of 100. The first 100 degree day of the year will have to wait, but not for long, as our old pal high pressure flexes its proverbial muscles. An EXCESSIVE HEAT WATCH is in effect for Thursday, so be ready to go out and watch the excessive heat. Feels like Summer in April. Thanx Captain Obvious!

Becoming mostly sunny today and “cooler” 🙂 with a high in the upper 90s. Low 60s tonight. Upper 90s again tomorrow. 102 Wednesday. 104 Thursday! Upper 90s Friday. Mid 90s Saturday and Sunday. Enjoy!

I wish it was Sunday… that’s my fun day… Oh wait. It IS Sunday! And. If the forecast comes true it will be the first 100 degree day in 2020. It’s not a lock. We could top out in the upper 90s, so there’s that. As you probably know, if we do hit 100 today it will be the third earliest first 100 degree day in the recorded weather history of Tucson. If we don’t. Then it won’t 🙂 Still hot either way you slice it. Getting hotter next week!

Sunny today near 100ish. Mid 60s tonight. Upper 90s tomorrow and Tuesday. Near 102ish Wednesday. 104 Thursday?! 99 I’ve been waiting so long Friday. Mid 90s Saturday. Enjoy!

It’s Friiidaaay!!!

And it’s hot and getting hotter. The good news is pools are warming up. you might be tempted to jump in ice water with the first 100+ degree day only a day or two away. If we hit 100 tomorrow or Sunday it will be the third earliest first 100 degree day in Tucson recorded history. (if that makes sense) It’s gonna happen. Might as well get mentally and emotionally prepared. Either way the 90s are here. Some of you are saying I Want it That Way (Backstreet Boys, 1999). Either way, My Heart Will Go On (Celine Dion, 1997)

Sunshine and hot! (I may have mentioned that already) Mid 90s today with a NW breeze just 5-15 mph. Upper 90s tomorrow. 101ish Sunday. 99 (I’ve been waiting so long…) Monday and Tuesday. 102ish Wednesday. 103 Wednesday! Enjoy?!
