PHOENIX (AZFamily) — The Extreme Heat Warnings that have been in effect since last week will finally let up at 8 p.m. on Wednesday.
High temperatures today are still above the normal of 105 for this time of the year, closer to 110, but we will start to see temps come down over the next few days. We’re looking at highs in Phoenix around 103 degrees on Friday and Saturday, before they warm back up to near 110 by the middle of next week.
As far as any sign of the monsoon, increasing moisture across the state will bring in better shower and thunderstorm chances for the next couple of days. Showers and thunderstorms are already firing off across the High Country and eastern Arizona higher terrain.
A Blowing Dust Advisory is in effect this evening south of the Valley, affecting areas such as Tucson, Casa Grande, and Maricopa, with blowing dust and poor visibility possible along highways and roadways. We will watch for any outflow boundaries from showers and storms outside of the Valley to kick up the dust across the Valley this evening, especially to the southeast.
There is a slight chance we could see a stray shower overnight and into early tomorrow morning across the Phoenix metro.
Storm chances then ramp up Thursday, with our best chances to see measurable rain across the Valley being on Friday, which is a First Alert Weather Day. The biggest potential impacts will be strong winds, patchy blowing dust and pockets of heavy rain. This could also be the first time we see measurable rain at Sky Harbor since the beginning of July.
By the weekend, drier air will filter into the state as a trough pushes that moisture out to the east. Temps will then be around 108-110 Monday through the middle of the week.
