FNUS55 KPSR 232043 FWFPSR Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Southwest and South-Central Arizona and Southeast California National Weather Service Phoenix AZ 143 PM MST Tue Apr 23 2024 .DISCUSSION... A multi-day period of breezy to windy conditions can be expected tonight through Saturday as a couple of weather systems move through the Desert Southwest. The strongest winds will be over southeast California Wednesday and Thursday...especially Imperial County and western portions of Joshua Tree National Park. Localized areas near and west of the Colorado River Valley will flirt with critical wind and humidity thresholds for a few hours late Wednesday afternoon. Otherwise, humidity will trend upward and preclude critical fire weather thresholds. Temperatures cool off as well. Note...Additional Fire Weather Forecast information can be found in the Area Forecast Discussion. See product PHXAFDPSR.
