FORECAST: Warming into the weekend

PHOENIX — Temperatures are warming up as we wrap up the week, but another storm is headed our way this weekend.

Our overnight clouds cleared out early this morning, leaving sunny skies for today. Valley highs will warm into the low 80s today.

Temperatures climb higher on Saturday, peaking in the mid 80s across the Valley.

Clouds move back in on Saturday ahead of our next storm that arrives Sunday. It will bring more wind, cooler air and even chances for rain and snow.

Temperatures will drop by 10 to 15 degrees across our state on Sunday putting Valley highs in the mid 70s.

We’ll also see a chance for spotty showers across the state, which could include more snow showers for the highest elevations.
