PHOENIX — Our latest storm is headed out and high pressure is building in.
As winds shift out of the north, we could still see gusts up to 40 mph near Bullhead City and Lake Havasu City on Tuesday.
Back here in the Valley, winds will stay light all week. As high pressure takes over, our forecast will be sunny and dry with highs in the mid to upper 70s through the middle of the week.
Overnight lows will cool into the 40s to 50s across the Valley each morning.
As we head into Thanksgiving, a storm system will approach from the north. Clouds will move in and we may see a few isolated showers in northern Arizona very late Thursday night.
Chances for more spotty rain and snow showers will continue in parts of the high country and northern Arizona over the weekend.
As this storm system backtracks to the southwest, we could see a few spotty showers in the Valley by next Monday.
Temperatures will drop, too.
Expect highs in the low 70s across the Phoenix metro area through the weekend and into next week.
