Flagstaff Weather

Flagstaff weather is similar to that of the South of Flagstaff region above the Mogollon Rim because they share elevation and vegetation attributes.

South of Flagstaff weather below the Rim is warmer all year around. Sedona weather is representative of this Verde Valley region.

South of Flagstaff weather above the Rim comes in the four most popular flavors. That, of course, would be garden planting season, fishing and hiking season, hunting season, and play in the snow season. Arizona's desert cities really don't have winters, so our desert-dwelling neighbors must come "up the hill" to experience the four seasons... and to ski at the Snowbowl.
