PHOENIX — Don't put the sweaters away just yet this week! Valley highs will only reach the upper 60s on Tuesday

Mornings will be chilly, with lows in the 40s.

Temperatures will gradually trend up with Valley highs climbing into the low 70s by Wednesday.

We have another storm on the way by Thursday, though. It will bring another chance for snow up north and we could pick up a few rain showers here in the Valley.

Temperatures will drop back into the 60 by the end of the week.

High pressure returns by the weekend and that's going to warm things up again quickly. We could see Valley highs back in the 80s by Sunday.
