PHOENIX — A cold front has moved Arizona through bringing high winds, rain, snow and a big cool-down.

Temperatures dropped around 15 to 20 degrees across much of our state.

Phoenix hit 72 degrees around 11 a.m. Wednesday morning before temperatures plummeted into the 50s in the afternoon.

Rain moved in, too. Phoenix picked up 0.04 inches of rain. The most we received across the Valley is around a quarter of an inch in Litchfield Park, Anthem and Cave Creek.

Up north, the snow level dropped to around 6,000 feet. One to three inches of snow is possible in Flagstaff and along the western Mogollon Rim before this storm clears east overnight.

We'll be dry state-wide heading into the weekend as temperatures rebound a few degrees.

Valley highs will be back in the low 70s by Friday for Veterans Day with early morning lows in the upper 40s.
