A strong weather system will be crossing the Southwest Friday and Saturday, bringing some precipitation and strong gusty winds. The early runs of the WRF at Atmo this morning produced similar forecasts from both the WRF-NAM and the WRF-GFS. At this time both models produce some light showers over eastern Pima County Saturday evening, but only at the highest elevations. However, the 10-m winds forecast for Saturday are very strong behind the front - forecast above is from the WRF-NAM for 10-m winds at 3 pm MST on Saturday. The Pacific cold front moves eastward across Pima County during the early morning hours on Saturday, resulting in both the strong winds and much lower temperatures. Looks like dust is the most definite forecast at this time. Not welcome news for allergy suffers who are enduring yet another very bad sneeze season.
