Southeast CA Wind Advisory Saturday Night

Sunday Outlook

A weather system will move through the region this weekend bringing widespread breezy to locally windy conditions to the region. The strongest gusts initially will be seen in Southeast CA late Saturday into the overnight hours, where a Wind Advisory has been issued, valid 5 PM Saturday through 5 AM PDT Sunday. Gusts over the Southeast California deserts/valleys may reach 30-45 mph, whereas prominent terrain features and ridgetops could see gusts peak upwards of 40-55 mph. Winds this strong could produce localized blowing dust/sand, and high profile vehicles will likely encounter difficult driving conditions.

Breezy conditions will continue on Sunday as a low pressure system just north of the area moves off towards the Four Corners. Stronger winds will be focused over the eastern/northeastern AZ high terrain. A brief light shower or sprinkle cannot be ruled out over the lower elevations, particularly during the early morning hours, but the majority of shower activity with this system will be focused over the Central and Northern AZ higher terrain. Expect afternoon highs close to 10 degrees below normal for late April, in the 70s to near 80°F across the lower deserts.
