Synopsis Temperatures will increase through the middle of
the week, with excessive heat expected Tuesday and Wednesday.

Thunderstorm activity will be limited to near the international
border today and Tuesday, expanding in coverage across southeast
arizona the second half of the work-week into next weekend.

Discussion Still looking at limited moisture for thunderstorms
today and Tuesday. Any thunderstorms that manage to develop will be
focused near the international border with possibly an isolated one
or two in the mountains. Otherwise, the heat will be the main
concern through Wednesday as more excessive heat can be anticipated
Tuesday and Wednesday. Thereafter, models showed the upper high
building northward with deeper moisture from the south spreading
back into southeast arizona. This moisture increase will result in
moderating temperatures and an upswing in thunderstorm activity for
the second half of the week.

Aviation Valid through 20 12z.
Few-sct (locally bkn) clouds at 12k-16k ft msl thru the forecast
period. A slight chance of -tsra -shra along the international
border from kols to kdug, including kalk, between 19 20z and 20 03z.

Sfc wind less than 12 knots and favoring a wly nwly direction in the
afternoon early evening with a few afternoon gusts to around 20 kts.

Aviation discussion not updated for TAF amendments.

Fire weather Limited moisture through Tuesday will result in any
shower thunderstorm development remaining confined to areas along
the international border from nogales eastward and in the white
mountains. Warmer temperatures are expected today, with near record
highs Tuesday and Wednesday. A strong moisture increase is then
expected Wednesday into the weekend, with thunderstorm coverage
increasing and shifting westward. Thunderstorms that do develop may
produce gusty and erratic outflow winds. Otherwise, 20-ft winds will
generally follow normal diurnal trends at less than 15 mph.

Twc watches warnings advisories

These are not intended to be fact, they are my opinions. 4) Small programs that generate result presented on a web page. Like any computer program, these may and in some cases do have errors. Almost all of these also make simplifying assumptions so they are not totally accurate even if there are no errors. Please verify all results. 5) Weather information is from numerious of sources and is presented automatically. It is not checked for accuracy either by anyone at L-36.com or by the source which is typically the US Government. See the NOAA web site for their disclaimer. Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program.
