Arizona Weather Force has issued the official Thunderstorm Watch, effective now through the evening, March 7th, 2025 for the following zones.
Zones Affected: Maricopa County, Prescott, Mogollon Rim from Payson through Show Low, and to Alpine, and the upper terrain of Northeast Arizona.
Discussion: A storm system moving through the area will eventually work with daytime instability. As this happens, thunderstorms containing hail, heavy rainfall, gusty winds, and isolated tornadoes will be possible within the cold core of the upper-level low.
Mountains and High Terrain NE AZ will see Thundersnow, which is lightning/thunder happening while it is snowing.
There is a chance near Tucson you can see something, but the focus is the watch area.
