A mild weather pattern dominates much of the Southwest today. Southern California coastlines, including Los Angeles and San Diego, are basking in clear skies with no precipitation in sight. Moving eastward, light snow showers are dusting over Flagstaff, contributing a wintery feel to the higher elevations. Up north in Reno, patches of cloud cover are present, though significant weather activity eludes the region. Ely is also enjoying clear conditions without rain or snow interruptions.
Tomorrow morning in Phoenix starts off clear and calm, with temperatures at 65 degrees at 8 AM. Expect the sunshine to break through as we move through the morning, with temperatures rising to 67 degrees by 10 AM and reaching 75 degrees by noon. There’s an east-southeast breeze at 4 to 5 miles per hour to keep things feeling comfortably mild.
High temperatures in the Southwest are expected to be significantly above average tomorrow. Phoenix will reach a warm 91 degrees, while Las Vegas is forecasted for 87 degrees. Bakersfield follows closely with a high of 87 as well, contributing to a warm trend across the southern inland areas. San Diego will be cooler at 69 degrees, with Los Angeles not far behind at 73 degrees.
The Southwest is set to experience a sunny and warm day, perfect for outdoor activities. However, watch for some drifting clouds that might bring scattered showers mainly in the higher elevations tomorrow afternoon. Temperatures will climb through the 80s in the lowlands, while the mountain areas stay cooler, hovering in the mid-60s. There is no severe weather anticipated; however, be alert to any localized gusty winds during afternoon showers.
The UV index in Phoenix is very high, reaching a level of 10 both Thursday and Friday, which means sunburn can occur in about 12 minutes.
