MOST ACCURATE FORECAST: Temperatures dropping in the days ahead

Posted
and last updated

PHOENIX — After back-to-back days of record warmth, temperatures are dropping across the Valley.

A storm system will pass through the Four Corners late Friday helping to cool things off as we head into the weekend.

Valley highs will drop into the low 70s Friday as breezes pick up across northern Arizona and along the Mogollon Rim.

Winds will pick up even more on Saturday with gusts near 40 mph across the high country.

Here in the Valley, gusts could top 30 mph Saturday afternoon as temperatures drop into the upper 60s.

We aren't expecting any rain in the Valley, but we could see spotty rain and snow showers in areas near the Four Corners on Friday as that next storm passes by.
