Tucson, AZ – Southeast Arizona residents should prepare for storms today, with a focus on areas south and east of Tucson. The National Weather Service (NWS) in Tucson has issued an alert regarding the increased storm activity expected in these regions. Residents are advised to stay indoors during peak storm hours and secure outdoor items that could become hazardous in high winds.
According to the NWS, moisture levels will rise on Tuesday and Wednesday, bringing widespread storm chances across the area. This heightened storm activity could lead to localized flooding, especially in lower-lying areas. Motorists are urged to avoid driving through flooded streets and to stay updated on the latest weather reports.
By Thursday, drier air is expected to reduce storm coverage, although high temperatures will remain slightly above normal for late August. Residents are encouraged to monitor local weather updates closely throughout the week, particularly those in flood-prone areas, as conditions may change rapidly.
