Watching this area in the east Pacific for something tropical with this positive phase of the MJO and just in case some of this sneaks across from the Pacific side. Looks like 2 systems next week potentially in the NHC area to watch.
We won't perturb you with early mentions of summer this morning. However, if you live in eastern Arizona, you may be perturbed by a rumble or two of thunder over the next few days. The rest of us? Warm and dry, flip flop time. #azwx
Basically, it will remain warm this week (it is summer), with some shower chances arriving out east. Nothing very exciting, unless you wind up under an isolated storm, that will be a hoot! #azwx
June probably makes you think of warm temperatures, we won't let you down. Strangely, still not as warm as March, but this week will have a proper summer feel to it. Maybe even some showers over eastern Arizona by mid-week. #azwx
The last day of May, it came swiftly, so it seems. Not very long ago, it was winter, although the snow did not think so. Now, we are on the precipice of June, they say that is summer. It will start to feel like it for sure, but the rain remains elusive, perhaps Wednesday? #azwx
Warming temperatures and lighter winds are expected for the weekend and into next week. Dry conditions remain as well, before chances for showers and thunderstorms begin to increase near the middle of next week, especially across eastern Arizona. #azwx
A few showers and thunderstorms will be possible this afternoon, mainly across northwestern Arizona. The rest of you get nothing, well except for wind. There will be plenty of wind to go around. #azwx
May 28 11 AM PDT: There is a medium chance (40%) of tropical cyclone formation well to the southwest of the Baja California peninsula next week. Visit https://t.co/Oy8uoeRKme for more details.
