PHOENIX — After a brief break from high winds, expect some breezes in Arizona on Sunday.

A Wind Advisory takes effect for portions of the Colorado River Valley, including Lake Havasu City and Bullhead City. Gusts of 45 mph are possible in some places.

Here in the Valley, winds throughout the weekend will hover around 10-15 mph as temperatures climb into the upper 80s.

High pressure will build in as we head into next week, bringing another big warm-up and potentially our first triple-digit temperatures of the year by Tuesday.

On average, our first 100-degree day of the year occurs around May 2nd. The earliest 100-degree day was on March 26, 1988.

Then, another round of breezy conditions return to the state, meaning fire danger may ramp up too.
