PHOENIX — Phoenix tied another record high temperature Saturday. this makes three day straight we have hit record high afternoon temperatures.

That streak of records will end after Saturday as we begin to watch temperatures pull back in the coming days.

While not as hot, we will still see temperatures in Phoenix reach the mid 90s on Sunday with mostly cloudy skies. Remember to stay hydrated, limit your time outside in the afternoon, and never leave kids or pets in your car for any amount of time.

Winds will increase fire danger across our state, especially across southeastern Arizona, where peak gusts could hit 35 to 40 mph.

Fire Weather Warnings are in effect this weekend for southeastern Arizona due to the high winds, low humidity and dry fuels. These warnings are also in effect for the eastern fringes of Maricopa County in the higher terrain just outside the Valley.

Here in the Valley, expect breezes 10-15 mph Sunday with gusts near 25 to 30 mph.

Temperatures will drop back into into the 80s by the end of this week with some rain and snow chances.
