A fire weather watch has been issued for Tuesday from 10 AM to 7 PM.
Blowing dust will be a concern, especially on I-10 between Tucson and Phoenix, and in Cochise county.
A cold front will accompany these winds both Tuesday and again Friday. Highs will go from 90 degrees today, to the upper 70s Tuesday. Highs will rebound to the mid-80s Thursday, then once again drop to the upper 70s Friday.
