PHOENIX — Get ready for a breezy end to the weekend with high fire danger returning for much of the state today.
Air quality in the Valley should improve a bit on Sunday as winds pick up, but that will lead to increased wildfire danger again across northern Arizona.
Most of northern Arizona is now under a Red Flag Warning for Sunday, meanings fire weather conditions are expected. A Wind Advisory is also in effect for northern Arizona. Expect wind gusts in parts of the high country between 40-45 mph.
Here in the Valley, daytime highs will top out in the mid-90s over the weekend with early morning lows in the 60s.
