PHOENIX (AZFamily) — A fire weather watch has been issued for eastern and northeastern Arizona this weekend, driven by strong winds and low humidity. The alert includes areas like Eagar and Springerville, where the Greer Fire continues to burn.
While winds around the Greer Fire are expected to stay relatively calm on Friday—reaching gusts up to 20 mph—they’re forecast to intensify over the weekend. This uptick in wind speed will likely create tougher conditions for firefighting teams in eastern Arizona. By Sunday, gusts could approach 40 mph, with Monday bringing winds near 35 mph in the same region.
