Issued Zones:  Cochise, Graham, and Greenlee County … Santa Cruz County … Eastern Pima County … Southeast Pinal County ..

Site:  Arizona Weather Force has issued a Thunderstorm Watch effective this afternoon until 5am Thursday morning …

Date:  7/20/22 at 10:10am PT

Forecast: Storms will develop over the higher terrain first this afternoon and then head to the lower terrain areas by evening.  Storms will be the strongest in the Santa Cruz, Cochise, Graham, and Greenlee County zones with damaging winds and large hail in the strongest cells … Movement is expected to be northeast to southwest.  

Overnight however, an impulse moving out of that same area will move across Tucson’s forecast area, which is why you are kept in this watch overnight.  Isolated to scattered thunderstorms will be possible in that zone, but you are not in the strongest storm sector … Still, a solid flow from the Catalina Mountains would mean Tucson is in the downrange spot for storms to move in … and weaken as they move southwest/west of the city more so …
