ARIZONA WEATHER FORCE MAIN:
Hurricane Kay is expected to be a category 2 today and then a 3+ (major hurricane) by Wednesday. She will impact the entire Baja Peninsula and cause a lot of damage. Because those zones are not in my jurisdiction I cannot issue alerts for them, but the wording is here as you read it. All AZWF models are getting stronger with it and strong and close enough to have issued these alerts for the right areas that need them.
THUNDERSTORMS: There is a chance of thunderstorms with this system on Friday/Friday night as the long spiral arm with upper divergence swings across all watch/advisory zones, including who is not in it in the Phoenix Metro zones. I will look at that when the time comes for any addition thunderstorm type alerts.
