PHOENIX — High pressure is building in and sending temperatures soaring!
Valley highs will hit the mid 90s for the rest of the week, putting us around 10 degrees above normal for this time of year.
Winds will pick up again on Tuesday with gusts near 25 mph in the Valley and gusts near 45 mph in northeastern Arizona.
Wind Advisories will be in effect from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Tuesday across northeastern Arizona.
We're expecting more wind over the weekend and early next week as a storm system moves down from the Pacific Northwest.
We could see some rain and snow showers across northwestern Arizona by Monday as a big dose of cooler air moves in with that storm.
Valley highs will drop more than 10 degrees, falling into the low 80s by the start of next week.
