PHOENIX — Record rain soaked the Valley on Tuesday as a winter storm impacted our state.
Phoenix Sky Harbor picked up 0.41 inches of rain, breaking the previous daily record of 0.25 inches set in 1967.
Since Sunday, Sky Harbor has received 0.70 inches of rain with parts of the East Valley at well over an inch!
Fog has been an issue over the past few days too and there's still a chance of patchy fog in the Valley on Thursday morning.
Another storm system will move into northern Arizona on Thursday, bringing more rain and snow chances to our state. The highest chances will be along and north of I-40.
Flagstaff could pick up another inch of snow and there's a slight chance of a few isolated showers in the Valley, too.
Temperatures will stay in the 60s for the rest of the week in Phoenix. But, as high pressure returns, we'll warm back up over the weekend.
Valley highs will reach the low 70s Saturday and mid 70s Sunday through early next week.
