A second arctic front will sweep across Arizona on Thursday. Various areas of the forecast area will see different weather impacts, but to highlight the focus spots you can see the entire Arizona Weather Force wind, rain, and snow model. One thing I will note is that the precipitation aspect will be 20% less than the system several days ago, but the wind impacts will be 20% higher, with Phoenix Metro having the least wind impacts out of the entire state. Again, use the model images from the AZWF models.
For the rest of the forecast, use the model images here –
