PHOENIX — Get the sunglasses out and open the sunroof as the Valley starts to warm up.
With plenty of sunshine in the forecast for today, Valley temperatures will be back in the low 70s and stay that way through early next week.
Air quality will continue to be an issue in the early morning hours as particle pollution settles over the Valley. If you have any respiratory issues, limit your time outside between 5 and 10 a.m.
Look for breezy conditions on Monday with Valley winds between 10-15 mph, gusting to 20 mph at times.
As we look ahead to midweek the weather becomes pretty unsettled with potential storm systems headed our way.
Valley rain chances and higher terrain snow chances will increase starting Thursday. Stay tuned for updates as we get closer.
