Here's hoping you enjoyed last week's spring-like weather conditions, because the winter storm is on its way to Tucson accompanied by strong winds. Expect sustained winds of 25 to 35 MPH- with gusts up to 50 MPH- until at least 4 p.m., when the wind advisory tapers off.

Aside from the wind, you can also expect widespread valley rain and mountain snow, with the heaviest rainfall running from this afternoon through Sunday morning.

High temperatures today and tomorrow will range from the mid-50s to low-60s, but we should be seeing temperatures back in the high-70s by Tuesday.

High: 62

Low: 48
