Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Flagstaff AZ
224 AM MST Tue Dec 9 2025

.SYNOPSIS...Expect dry and warm conditions through this week.

&&

.DISCUSSION...The forecast remains unchanged, we are in a quiescent
period of weather through at least early next week. A consistent 
strong ridge over the eastern Pacific is keeping northern AZ under
a dry northwest flow. This feature is expected to slowly push more
inland over the next few days, bringing light winds and warming 
temperatures. Daytime highs look to peak 10-20 degrees above normal
Thursday-Friday. By the weekend, ensemble guidance is in agreement
that heights will fall slightly as the ridge flattens. Temperatures
will cool but still sit above normal into next week. A few passing
disturbances through the period will bring occasional periods of 
high clouds, no but precipitation is expected. The only other 
thing of note will be efficient radiational cooling leading to 
breezy nighttime terrain winds, particularly along/south of the 
Mogollon Rim.

&&

.AVIATION...Tuesday 09/06Z through Wednesday 10/06Z...Expect VFR 
conditions and generally light winds. ENE winds will develop in the 
overnight hours downwind of higher terrain features, including 
terminal KSEZ.

OUTLOOK...Wednesday 10/06Z through Friday 12/06Z...Expect VFR 
conditions and generally light winds.
