Monsoon storms can include strong to severe wind gusts and locally heavy rainfall, the weather service says.
Monday and Tuesday will be the hottest days in the region, between 4 degrees and 7 degrees hotter than normal. Tucsonβs high Monday is expected to be about 103.
The potential for storms increases to cover most of southeast Arizona on Wednesday and Thursday. The possibility of overnight thunderstorms Tuesday, however, could hinder storm coverage Wednesday.
Drier air is set to move into the region Friday and the weekend, reducing storm chances and keeping those that do form to be mostly east of Tucson, the weather service says.
