Flagstaff, Arizona – Sunshine and light winds will dominate Friday in Flagstaff, kicking off a warm and dry stretch through early next week.
According to the National Weather Service, Flagstaff will see mostly sunny skies Friday with a high near 77°F. Winds from the southwest could reach up to 16 mph by the afternoon, especially along open corridors like Highway 180 and Interstate 40, raising minor travel concerns and elevating local fire weather sensitivity.
Saturday and Sunday continue the clear, calm trend — but with climbing highs of 81°F and 83°F, respectively. Overnight lows remain in the mid-40s, giving some relief. Winds pick up slightly each evening, with gusts up to 20 mph by Monday, when temperatures are expected to peak at 84°F.
