and last updated

PHOENIX — With high pressure in control, temperatures are running several degrees above normal for this time of year.

Valley temperatures will top out in the 70s through Thursday, with overnight lows in the 40s.

Clouds will start moving in starting today, ahead of the next storm system we are tracking.

That storm will bring rain and snow back to Arizona on Friday and Saturday, which could impact outdoor activities and travel across the state.

Friday and Saturday will be ABC15 Weather Action Days as a reminder to take action and adjust your plans to stay safe in the storm.

We could see accumulating snow across parts of the high country over 6,000 feet in elevation by Saturday morning.

It's still too soon to know how much rain and snow we could get, but we'll keep you posted as we get closer.

Temperatures will drop, too.

Valley highs will fall into the 60s on Saturday, Sunday and Monday, which is finally near normal for this time of year!
