Forecast for Saturday, February 2, 2019

Unsettled Tucson Weather through the weekend and most of next week! Unsettling perhaps for some. I, for one, welcome our partly sunny to mostly cloudy with a chance to good chance for showers overlords!

A low currently along the northern California coast will move into the Great Basin. That will cause two things to happen. The SW flow will bring up a bunch of moisture. We are already clouding (yep. spell check says that’s a word) up this morning and we should see sprinkles off and on today (mmm sprinkles). The second thing that will happen is the low will drag a cold front through the area tonight that will interact with the moisture and give us a good chance for showers and mountain rain late tonight into tomorrow. Yep. Mountain rain! Sorry about that Summerhaven. Could see up to .40″ in the valleys and maybe an inch (of rain. maybe some snow mixed in tomorrow) on the mountain. Another storm approacheth by mid next week. Lots of possibilities with this one! In between storms we’ll keep an onshore flow with occasional disturbances in the force to keep isolated to scattered showers in the forecast through most of next week. The mid week storm could (could) give us a real soaking. Or. If it stays north more of a scattered showering. Still. It’s plenty of clouds with some sun and off and on rain through the weekend into late next week! Stay tuned!

Partly sunny today with occasional sprinkles and a high in the upper 60s. 40% chance for scattered showers tonight and a low in the low 50s. 90% chance for showers tomorrow and a high in the low 60s. 40% Sunday night and 30% Monday mid 60s. 10% Monday night and Tuesday low 60s. 10% Tuesday night and 40% Wednesday upper 50s. 20% Wednesday night and 10% Thursday upper 50s. Sunny Friday low 60s. Enjoy!
