PHOENIX — We are tracking another storm system that will pick up winds and drop temperatures across our state.

Valley wind gusts will top out around 25 mph through Sunday. Up north, gusts could hit 35 mph along the I-40 corridor and Mogollon Rim.

Those winds will usher in cooler air dropping Valley highs into mid 80s on Sunday and the mid 70s on Monday.

We could also see a few spotty showers along the Mogollon Rim and in Northern Arizona on Monday. The Valley looks to stay dry.

As that storm system exits to the east, we'll begin another warm-up on Tuesday.

Phoenix will be back into the upper 80s Tuesday afternoon before climbing into the upper 90s by the end of next week.
