Episode Synopsis

Good morning, this is your Flagstaff Local Frequency for Thursday, July 17, 2025.As Flagstaff wakes up this morning, monsoon season is making its presence known. Yesterday brought spotty storms across the region and today’s weather keeps us guessing, with partly sunny skies and a high near 88 degrees. Keep an umbrella handy because there’s a good chance of showers and thunderstorms this evening. That classic high-country haze is lingering too, so enjoy the filtered sunlight and remember to drive safe if storms roll through later today.On the community front, law enforcement made headlines yesterday after two men were arrested with nearly 23 pounds of marijuana and firearms during a traffic stop on I-40 just outside town. The Coconino County Sheriff’s Office reports these arrests are part of ongoing efforts to keep local roads and neighborhoods safer.For those looking for summer fun, Flagstaff’s rich arts scene is buzzing.
