PHOENIX — After a perfect Thanksgiving week and weekend, we are in store for some changes as we head into the new week, including high temperatures falling back in the 60s and a chance for a freeze in western Arizona.

Sunday night, a weak storm system will pass the Four Corners, bringing light rain and snow. Much of the state should remain dry as this system passes.

Temperatures will begin to fall behind this for part of the state. A Freeze Watch is in place for parts of Mohave County for Monday night into Tuesday morning. So remember to protect the 4 P's: people, pets, plants, and pipes.

As we start the week, we are in store for more fairly sunny weather. Morning lows will be quite chilly, in the 40s, across much of the Valley. Meanwhile, afternoon highs will steadily fall to the lower 70s and back into the 60s for the second half of the week.

This comes as another storm is set to move by Arizona; model data has been all over the place on where the low will track.

However, there is some consistency in the chance of snow showers in the high country Wednesday into Thursday. This could also bring a stray chance for a shower in the Valley by Thursday.

However, the latest model runs are less aggressive with that rain chance.

This storm system will keep highs in the Valley in the mid to upper 60s for the rest of the week, and morning lows will be down in the 40s.

Stay tuned for updates as it gets closer.
