TUCSON - Any fire that starts today could spread rapidly! A Red Flag Warning is in effect from 10 AM to 6 PM for parts of Southern Arizona. The wind will pick up again tomorrow as another system approaches. Expect colder temperatures, rain and snow Tuesday night into Wednesday!
It will be windy at times today with sustained wind ranging from 20 to 30 mph with gusts around 45 mph. A Red Flag Warning is in effect from 10 AM to 6 PM for all of Cochise and Santa Cruz County as well as parts of Pima, Pinal, Graham and Greenlee County. With the dry conditions in place, any fire that starts could spread rapidly. Remember one less spark, means one less wildfire! Blowing dust will also be possible.

The wind will pick up again tomorrow as another system approaches our state. Sustained wind between 20-30 mph with gusts around 40 MPH. Blowing dust will be a concern and fire danger will remain high.
