Temperature Outlook

Abundant moisture from Tropical Cyclone Priscilla will push into the region and promote the threat of heavy rainfall and flooding for the end of the week. The threat of heavy rain leading to flooding concerns will initially begin across southeast California and southwest Arizona starting Thursday afternoon before shifting east across south-central Arizona Friday afternoon through Saturday. A Flood Watch has been issued for southeast California and southwest Arizona Thursday afternoon through Friday evening and Friday afternoon through Saturday evening for south-central Arizona.

Rain chances will continue to further increase across the region Thursday as bands of showers and embedded thunderstorms are expected by the afternoon. Training showers and isolated thunderstorms will be capable of producing locally heavy rainfall amounts which could lead to flash flooding, particularly across portions of southeast California. A Flood Watch goes into effect for southeast California and southwest Arizona Thursday afternoon.

Abundant moisture streaming into the Desert Southwest from Tropical Cyclone Priscilla will lead to widespread chances for rainfall leading to potentially significant rainfall amounts. Given the anticipated heavy rainfall amounts, flooding will be possible with a Flood Watch in effect for much of the area through Saturday.

Temperatures over the next several days will be on the downtrend thanks to increasing moisture and cloud cover associated with the remnants of Tropical Cyclone Priscilla. Readings will fall to below normal readings by this weekend.
