Winds will remain SW to W through this evening with occasional gusts up around 20 kt expected at all terminals through sunset. Thereafter, winds will relax and switch back out of the E-SE late tonight. FEW to SCT clouds around 6-7 kft will continue to dissipate as dry air moves into the area.

Southeast California/Southwest Arizona including KIPL and KBLH: No major aviation weather concerns are anticipated through the forecast period. Winds will favor a SW-W component at KBLH and W-NW at KIPL. Intermittent gusts up to 20-25 kts will be common over the next few hours with a few gusts exceeding 30 kts possible at KIPL. Otherwise, gusts should diminish by midnight and speeds will fall to 10 kts or less. FEW to SCT clouds, mostly aoa 7 kft, will continue into the evening before becoming clear overnight.

Fire Weather

Strong to severe thunderstorms with heavy rainfall will remain possible over eastern districts through this afternoon before rapid drying spreads through the area this evening and tonight. The heaviest rainfall will be focused more across higher terrain areas north and east of Phoenix. MinRHs today will again be in a 30-60% range before dropping more into a 25-40% range for Friday and Saturday as cooler air settles into the region. Gusty west winds upwards of 25-30 mph will be possible across the western districts through this evening with winds becoming light starting tonight. Overall quiet weather conditions are forecast for this weekend into next week with fairly stable humidities and temperatures rebounding back into the normal range early next week.
