Tucson is starting Tuesday, November 3, with clear skies and a crisp 48 degrees around dawn, but the chill will not last long. Sunshine should push temperatures to about 75 degrees this afternoon, with light winds and no rain in the immediate forecast.

Patchy Fog Gives Way To Full Sun

Patchy fog could briefly form in moisture-prone spots east of Tucson, particularly around the Sulphur Springs Valley, before burning off this morning. After that, skies should stay sunny, making for an easy outdoor afternoon with winds near 3 mph, according to the National Weather Service.

Dry Stretch Holds Through The Weekend

Tuesday night will be mostly clear with a low near 50, followed by another sunny 75-degree Wednesday. Thursday looks nearly identical at 75, while Friday is expected to be mostly sunny near 74 with just a 3% chance of rain.

Warmer Weekend With More Wind Sunday

Saturday should reach 76 degrees under sunny skies, and Sunday could top out near 77. East winds pick up Sunday to 8 to 14 mph, but the broader pattern remains dry, with daytime highs running about 5 to 8 degrees below normal across southeast Arizona this week.
