PHOENIX — Winds are picking up, increasing the risk for wildfires across parts of Arizona as a storm system passes by to our north.
Wind Advisories are in effect across much of northern Arizona today, including in areas like Flagstaff, Prescott, and across the Navajo Nation. Wind gusts in these areas could top out near 50 to 55 mph by this afternoon. Winds will pick up in the Phoenix Metro Area today too, and gusts could top 30 mph this afternoon. Those gusty winds will make the firefight even more difficult for crews battling the Wildcat Fire located just east of Carefree, near Bartlett Lake.
While we likely won't get much measurable rainfall, a few showers or isolated storms could develop from early this afternoon to early this evening across central Arizona.
