MOST ACCURATE FORECAST: More rain and snow coming over Easter weekend

Posted
and last updated

PHOENIX — Rain and snow are still falling across parts of our state as a storm system clips by the Four Corners.

Showers impacted parts of the Valley Tuesday evening, along with wind gusts near 40 mph!

Our forecast starts to dry out again on Wednesday as high pressure returns. That will also bring another big warm-up by the end of the week.

Valley highs will climb into the mid to upper 70s on Wednesday and into the mid 80s Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

But, we are tracking another storm system moving in over Easter weekend.

Winds will start to pick up ahead of it on Friday and continue to be an issue on Saturday and Sunday too. Gusts will peak near 30 mph here in the Valley, but could top 40 mph across the high country.

Rain and snow will start to fall in parts of our state as early as Saturday evening and continue throughout Easter Sunday.

Rain and snow showers could linger into the start of next week, too.

Stay tuned for updates on how much rain and snow we could get out of this storm as we get closer.
