PHOENIX — As our latest winter storm clears out overnight, temperatures are plummeting.
Freeze Warnings and Hard Freeze Warnings are in effect for the entire Valley and areas to our south in Pinal and Pima Counties until 9 a.m. Tuesday.
Many parts of the Phoenix metro area will hit the freezing point for the first time in years!
The last time Phoenix hit the freezing point was January 2nd, 2019.
So, make sure to bundle up and bring your pets inside overnight.
Also, protect your sensitive plants by covering them with a blanket, sheet or tarp. Small potted plants should be brought inside.
Any exposed pipes should be covered, especially in outlying areas, or they may freeze overnight.
Up north, lows will plummet into the single digits and teens.
Temperatures will slowly rebound the rest of the week with Valley highs climbing back into the low 60s by midweek.
