PHOENIX — It'll be another breezy day in the 80s on Wednesday across the Valley.
Look for peak gusts around 25 mph across the Phoenix metro area in the mid-morning to early afternoon.
These breezy winds could worsen allergies as pollen counts remain high all week. Ash, Mulberry and Poplar are the main allergens this time of year.
High pressure moves in on Thursday sending temperatures soaring by the end of the week.
We'll see our first 90-degree day in the Valley on Friday and could even tie the record high of 93 degrees that day. (That record was set back in 1990.)
Valley highs reach the low to mid 90s through the weekend, but it looks like this stretch of 90s won't last long.
Another storm system is set to move in early next week dropping temperatures and bringing back rain chances.
Stay tuned for updates as we get closer.
