Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Flagstaff AZ
354 PM MST Sat Dec 13 2025

.SYNOPSIS...High pressure will continue to bring well above
normal temperatures and dry weather to the region into next week.

&&

.DISCUSSION...Dry weather with well above normal temperatures is
forecast over the next week. High temperatures today will be 10-20
degrees above normal as strong ridging is over the region. A weak
disturbance will cross the state later Sunday into Monday with
just a couple degrees of cooling and some high clouds. A more
zonal flow is forecast for the remainder of next week as the ridge
is suppressed to the south. Daily highs will remain well above
normal, with southwest winds increasing to 10-20 mph mid to late
week. This should actually bring a decent warm up to some of the
northeast AZ valleys that have been stuck in an inversion the past
several days. Places like Winslow, St Johns, and Chinle are
forecast to be 5-10 degrees warmer Wednesday through Friday as the
inversion is eroded.
