SIERRA VISTA — The National Weather Service has issued a wind advisory and hazardous weather outlook for Cochise and Santa Cruz counties.


The weather service said a strong low pressure system will be over the western United States over the weekend, which includes Arizona. Wind speeds are expected to increase as the storm tightens, with the strongest winds likely in northern Greenlee County, the weather service said.

A chance of rain and snow will arrive with the storm, as temperatures dip, with highs in the mid 50s and lows in the 30s.

The weather service said that on Saturday through Thursday the chance for precipitation includes the possibility of snow in elevations above 5,000 feet. Sierra Vista is around 4,600 feet, and Bisbee is about 5,300 feet.

Drivers are warned to be prepared for the possibility of snow.
