PHOENIX — An area of low pressure has been stalled over Arizona keeping rain and snow showers going across parts of our state for days.
We'll see a few more spotty showers and thunderstorms develop over the higher terrain north of Phoenix on Wednesday, but the Valley will begin to dry out as this storm system finally starts to head east.
High pressure will build in next, bringing another big warm-up by the end of the week.
Valley highs will climb into the mid 80s Thursday, Friday and Saturday, putting us several degrees above normal for this time of year.
Then, another storm will bring more cool air our way on Sunday and Monday, with more wind, rain and snow chances too. Stay tuned for updates on this storm as we get closer.
