Forecast Arizona is the definitive portal for the Grand Canyon State's weather and climate — built to make the official National Weather Service forecast fast, clean, and highway-clear for all 15 counties, from the Yuma Valley and the Sonoran Desert floor up through the Mogollon Rim to the San Francisco Peaks, the Colorado Plateau and the Navajo Nation.
No state in the country stacks more climate into one drive. Phoenix has never had an inch of snow stick; Flagstaff, ninety minutes north on I-17, averages a hundred a year. Yuma is the sunniest place on Earth and Mount Lemmon runs a ski lift above Tucson. The monsoon arrives in July and rewrites the forecast every afternoon for three months, and extreme heat kills more Arizonans than every other weather hazard combined. Forecast Arizona is built around that vertical mile rather than the flat map of it.
The look borrows from the American Interstate system — the reflective paper, the green guide signs, the blue service signs, the brown recreation signs, and the red-white-and-blue route shields — set in Overpass, the typeface drawn from the Highway Gothic lettering on those signs. Arizona takes a desert caliche paper and an Arizona turquoise accent, on red rock — its own note in the network.
Arizona is covered close-up by 4 region sites, each on its own subdomain of forecastarizona.com — the same maps, the same live radar and the same climate record as this site, drawn to one metro or region instead of the whole state, with a page for every city in it. They are part of Forecast Arizona, not separate sites: /about on any of them lands back here.
Arizona has all five of its neighbors live: Forecast California across the Colorado River, Forecast Nevada at the Hoover Dam bypass where I-11 crosses, Forecast Utah up the Virgin River Gorge on I-15 and across Lake Powell at Page, Forecast Colorado at Four Corners, the only place in the country where you can stand in four states at once, and Forecast New Mexico the length of the eastern line — all tinted in their own accent on the hero map and clickable from it. The rest of the Forecast <State> network is part of the same system.
