.SYNOPSIS...Dry and much warmer weather arrives today and
continues through the coming week.

&&

.DISCUSSION...Zonal flow returns today with warming temperatures and
a return to dry conditions. Daytime temperatures will warm to near
normal today but remain below normal across eastern Arizona. As we
go through the week, we warm a few degrees each day, resulting in
highs around 5-10 degrees above normal by midweek.

A few shortwaves will move through the region over the course of the
week. They look to lack moisture so not expecting any precipitation
at this time. However, the pressure gradient will tighten with each
wave, resulting in some breezier conditions. The strongest of the
waves arrives Thursday into Friday with another stronger trough
later next weekend. Overall, should be a nice week across the High
Country.
