About the creator

SrA Damani Stewart Johnson

This portal was created to give 56 OSS/OSW weather operators a cleaner, faster place to work with SOPs, regulations, TAF checks, MEF QA, and first-look aviation weather guidance. The goal is simple: reduce friction, keep important tools close, and make operational weather support easier to execute.

Brief Inputs

TAF

METAR / Current Conditions

AFD Aviation / Forecast Discussion Context

NWS Phoenix AFD issued 2026-05-05T05:26:00Z.

KEY MESSAGES:
- Much cooler temperatures with below normal readings will prevail during the next couple of days.
- Breezy to locally windy conditions will be common through Tuesday with modest rain chances across the Arizona high terrain areas.
- A rapid warming trend to above normal temperatures is likely by the latter half of the week and this weekend.

AVIATION:
Isolated shower activity and low VFR CIGs will be the main aviation concern during the front half of the TAF period. Showers over southeast Arizona should remain mostly east of Phoenix-area airspace tonight, though a few VCSH, mainly near KIWA, cannot be ruled out. Confidence regarding timing of further SHRA activity is low, but the best window for more widespread activity looks closer to 12-13Z. SHRA will be accompanied by lower cloud decks, with FEW-SCT 4-5 kft bases and BKN 5-6 kft CIGs. Sub-VFR conditions are not expected, but VFR CIGs may still create operational impacts. Bases gradually lift by afternoon. Winds should contain a southwest component through most of the period, though a brief window of SSE and VRB conditions cannot be ruled out around 10-13Z. Potential SHRA may lead to short windows of erratic winds.
