PHOENIX — After a hot weekend across the Valley and much of Arizona, temperatures are expected to begin dropping after Monday.
High pressure will still dominate Monday keeping temperatures in the triple digits for the city. The risk of heat-related illnesses, such as heat exhaustion and heat stroke, remains moderate. Be sure to stay hydrated, limit outdoor activities during peak heat, bring pets indoors, and never leave children or pets in vehicles.
As a storm approaches the West Coast, it will bring stronger winds to Arizona starting Monday and continuing into Tuesday. Gusts over 50 mph are possible along the Mogollon Rim.
A Wind Advisory is in effect Monday for areas along the Rim and throughout northern and northwestern Arizona. Travel may be hazardous for high-profile vehicles—consider delaying travel if possible.
A Fire Weather Warning is also in place for Monday and Tuesday across southern and southeastern Arizona due to strong winds and relative humidity dropping below 10%.
Temperatures will dip briefly after the storm passes, with Valley highs dropping into the upper 80s by Wednesday before leveling out in the 90s for the rest of the week.
