Rain and gusty winds are in our forecast for today
We can expect breezy conditions for today. Winds will range from 10 to 25 MPH around lunchtime. As we go into later in the afternoon and evening that's when winds will start to increase for the valley and Yuma county.
There is a Wind Advisory issued for 5 P.M. today until 3 A.M. Wednesday. This includes areas in Southeastern California and Arizona Southwest for gusty winds that could reach up to 50 MPH. In addition to these windy conditions could result in blowing dust and sand.
Another storm system is expected for today. Storms can start to develop in Imperial County around the afternoon. Later in the evening, those storms are expected to move to Yuma County areas. We can see more rain through Wednesday morning.
With rain in our forecast, we can see measurable rain for both Imperial and Yuma areas. Make sure to have an umbrella with you for today.
A stronger lower pressure will move from California to Arizona tonight, so we will experience chillier temperatures tonight and tomorrow.
