Fire weather concerns are expected to linger across parts of southeastern and eastern Arizona on Sunday, but will remain limited elsewhere across the country. An upper wave that is in the early stages of amplification along the northern CA coast is forecast to continue deepening through the weekend as is migrates south/southeast towards the SoCal coast. This will maintain a swath of strong mid-level winds across much of AZ for the next 24-48 hours. At the surface, the greatest pressure falls will likely reside along the SoCal coast in proximity to the deepening upper wave and across portions of northern Mexico, resulting in a somewhat muted pressure gradient compared to today/Saturday. Consequently, winds will likely be weaker, but most solutions suggest sustained winds around 15 mph are still probable across southeast AZ where a deep boundary layer will aid in downward mixing of stronger mid-level winds, and along the northern slopes of the Mogollon Rim. Limited moisture return into the region will maintain RH minimums generally between 10-15%. Combined with antecedent dry fuels and breezy conditions, this should promote another day of at least elevated fire weather conditions. ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... $$
