PHOENIX — Monsoon storms are firing up again across Arizona.
Heavy downpours and flooding are the biggest impacts and most of our state is under a Flood Watch overnight as that threat continues.
Gusty winds, dangerous lightning and hail are also possible with any of the monsoon storms that develop across Arizona.
Chances for more monsoon storms will be in the forecast each day this week and through the weekend, too.
With all of this monsoon moisture in place, temperatures will not be as hot.
Valley highs will only reach the upper 90s to low 100s each day this week, putting us a few degrees below average for this time of year.
Morning temperatures will cool into the low to mid 80s each day, so we will get some relief from the heat in the overnight hours.
