NWS Forecast Office Tucson, AZ

Near record to record high temperatures are forecast for southeast Arizona heading into this weekend through early next week. High temperatures are expected to top out in the mid to upper 80s to low 90s. While temperatures in the upper 80s to low 90s are common for the middle of May, they are potentially dangerous to human health in the winter when we are no longer acclimated to hot temperatures. Practice heat safety by hydrating early and often, limit outdoor activity during the warmest part of the day, wear light clothing, and take plenty of breaks in air conditioning.
