126 PM MST Sun Jan 25 2026

.SYNOPSIS...High pressure aloft building in from the west will
result in dry conditions through at least Wednesday. Below normal
high temperatures will continue through Monday, warming to above
normal levels the latter half of the week.

.DISCUSSION...Below normal temperatures will continue through Monday
behind an existing storm system which brought valley rain and
mountain snow to southeast Arizona. High temperatures will be around
10 degrees below normal today and 4-6 degrees below normal Monday.
For tonight/early Monday morning, patchy fog is a possibility mainly
in the valleys of Cochise County, but confidence is too low to be
included in the gridded forecast (as was mentioned in the previous
forecast discussion). Breezy easterly winds of 10-20 mph and gusts
to around 30 mph are expected Monday in those locations prone to
easterly winds.

Dry conditions continue through at least Wednesday as shortwave
ridging moves across the desert southwest. High temperatures warm to
around normal Tuesday and then to 2-3 degrees above normal on
Wednesday. Weak troughing occurs across the area Thursday/Friday,
with the model solutions indicating only a very slight chance of
precipitation (
