589 FXUS65 KFGZ 071708 AFDFGZ Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Flagstaff AZ 1008 AM MST Sun Dec 7 2025 .SYNOPSIS...Dry conditions with warming temperatures are expected to continue through the week. && .DISCUSSION...A strong Pacific high pressure system, just off the California coast, will strengthen and slowly push towards the state over the next several days. With the high in control, we will see warming temperatures and continued dry conditions with generally light northwesterly daytime winds. Daytime highs will rise to around 10-20 degrees above normal by midweek. Meanwhile, nighttime lows through at least Tuesday will be cold as clear skies and light winds will support strong radiational cooling. Additionally, areas along and south of the Mogollon Rim will have elevated drainage winds at night. The high looks strong enough to persist through the week, before there may be an inkling of it starting to break down next weekend. && .AVIATION...Sunday 07/18Z through Monday 08/18Z...VFR conditions, no precipitation expected.
