PHOENIX — After a record breaking weekend with highs above 110 and lows near 90, we get a break from the excessive heat, but not the winds.

Wind Advisories are now in effect for northern Arizona on Monday. Gusts up to 50 mph are possible, while gusts in the Valley could reach 30 mph.

The high winds, low humidity, dry fuels, and warm temperatures mean fire danger is extremely high in the high country. Red Flag Warnings are also in effect for much of northern Arizona Monday.

The monsoon season officially begins on Wednesday, June 15th and it's looking more and more likely that storms will be back in our forecasts across Arizona by the end of next week. Stay tuned for details as we get closer.
