Rain showers are currently sweeping across the northwestern part of Nevada, particularly over Ely and moving towards the Salt Lake City area, delivering much-needed precipitation.

Coastal cities like San Francisco and San Diego are enjoying sunny conditions.
Expect a clear and calm start tomorrow morning in Phoenix, with temperatures beginning at 70 degrees around 8 a.m. Winds will be light from the east-southeast at 4 miles per hour, creating a gentle breeze. As the morning progresses, the sun will shine bright, warming temperatures to 72 degrees by 10 a.m., with a slight shift to southeast winds at 5 miles per hour.

In the Southwest tomorrow, expect a mostly dry day with a few spotty showers skirting across parts of Arizona and New Mexico, but not enough to disrupt outdoor plans. The real story is in Southern California where coastal areas might experience overcast skies with light drizzle, giving way to clearer conditions by afternoon. In contrast, northern regions of Southern California could see isolated thunderstorms, especially in higher elevations, warranting caution for travelers through those mountain passes. Temperatures remain warm under the influence of high pressure, holding steady in the upper 70s to mid-80s, making it feel quite summery. Keep an eye on localized gusty winds, which may impact visibility in desert areas, potentially kicking up dust.
