PHOENIX — Heavy rain, thunderstorms, hail and even flooding have been impacting Arizona as this latest storm system tracks through.

As of Thursday morning, Sky Harbor has picked up more than a third of an inch of rain this week, with many other Valley locations getting a half inch to an inch and a half of rain.

Glendale has been the hardest hit with over 2 inches of rain since Monday night.

There's still a slight chance of a few light showers in the forecast as we wrap up the workweek.

Then, another storm system is expected to move in this weekend with another round of cold air, rain and mountain snow.

The snow level will be between 7,000 and 8,000 feet in elevation this weekend with the chance of an inch or two of snow along the Mogollon Rim. Our highest peaks, above 9,000 feet could see several inches of snow.

Here in the Valley, the best chances for rain will be Saturday evening through Sunday morning. Early model estimates are showing the potential of a quarter inch to a half inch of rain in some Valley neighborhoods.

Temperatures will stay cool with daytime highs in the 60s and overnight lows in the 50s.

As high pressure returns next week, we will dry out and warm back up.

Valley highs will return to the 70s staring Tuesday with temperatures likely in the mid-70s on Thanksgiving.
