PHOENIX — The Valley gets one more sunny stretch before showers and thunderstorms move in Tuesday, according to the AZFamily First Alert Weather team.
Sunday is expected to top out around 76 degrees after a cool morning in the mid-50s. Monday warms a bit more, with highs near 80.
Changes arrive Tuesday with a good chance of scattered showers and thunderstorms. Forecasters made Tuesday a First Alert Weather Day because rain could affect the morning and evening commutes. Clouds and rain should keep highs in the low 70s.
Cooler weather sticks around Wednesday and Thursday, with highs in the low to mid-70s. Friday and Saturday are expected to reach the upper 60s to around 70, with a slight chance of rain Friday, though forecasters said confidence in that part of the forecast is low.
Higher elevations in northern Arizona could turn colder with the midweek system, so anyone traveling north should check the forecast before heading out.
Drivers can check road conditions at az511.gov or by calling 511.
