Well that escalated quickly! An upper level low centered near Rocky Point this morning has pulled some moisture northward and as it appraoceth today we could add enough instability for the National Weather Service to introduce thunderstorms to our forecast! (thunderstorms meet forecast. Forecast, thunderstorms) It’s one of the things I love about weather. It can still surprise us. Still a bit of an east wind today but not as breezy as the last couple of days. Our old pal high pressure still fixin’ to move our way to start next week with the 80s making a comeback! (I wanted to be with you alone. and talk about the weather…) Another storm heading our way by Thursday for cooler Tucson Weather and a chance for showers.

Mostly sunny today with a 20% chance for thunderstorms. East breezes 10-15 mph and gusty. Today’s high in the mid 70s. Mostly clear tonight upper 40s. Sunny tomorrow and Monday upper 70s. Low 80s Tuesday and Wednesday. 10% Thursday mid 70s. 20% Thursday night upper 40s. Mostly sunny Friday low 70s. Enjoy!

This section is the hard part. I have excepted a job that requires extensive travel and a pretty good chance that I will be moving to Phoenix. I start on Monday. So. This is my last forecast on this page and at tucsonweather.us. I’ve been doing this every morning (with rare exception) for the last almost 9 years! We’ve built a solid community of weather enthusiasts and I hate to let it go. Unfortunately I don’t see how I can continue with my new responsibilities. Thank you all SO MUCH. To the Patreons, I will be shutting that down today most likely. Amazing that some of you would think that my fun hobby is worthy of financial support. I’ll keep the Facebook page open and maybe even post from time to time. THANK YOU!!!
