May Day, May Day. This is southern Arizona. Do you copy? I repeat, do. you. copy? We have an approaching storm from California kicking up our winds. A RED FLAG WARNING is in effect from 11:00 this morning until 6:00 tonight. Please send extra resources to make sure that people who smoke keep their butts in their car. Over. Oh, cooler today too with a high near 81ish. SW winds 15-25 mph gusting to near 35.

Our system moves through tonight and we’ll keep it breezy until midnight. The best news is the 20% chance for showers and/or a thunderstorm, hopefully near you! Snow levels as low as just below 7,000, so there’s that. Low in Tucson in the low 50s.

Sunny with lingering breezes tomorrow behind the exiting low. SSW winds 5-15 mph and gusty with a high in the mid 70s. Nice!

Warming up quickly through the weekend. Upper 70s Thursday. Upper 80s Friday. Mid 90s Saturday. Near 100 Sunday! Upper 90s Monday. Welcome to May.
