PHOENIX — After a dip in temperatures for the first day of spring, get ready for a big time warm-up later this week!

The storm that brought rain, mountain snow, and cooler temps is moving out, but breezy to windy conditions are sticking around. There are Wind Advisories in effect for western and northeastern Arizona, including the Navajo Nation, through Monday as gusts could reach 45 mph.

Breezes will pick up in the Valley, too, with gusts up to 25 mph possible in some areas through Wednesday.

Temperatures will gradually rebound with highs back in the 80s by Tuesday and warming into the 90s for the first time in 2022 on Friday.
