PHOENIX — Our record-setting March heatwave is over.
Temperatures are dropping and winds are picking up as a storm system passes to our north.
Peak gusts will hit 25 mph in the Valley and 40 mph along the Mogollon Rim and across northeastern Arizona over the weekend.
Those winds are ushering in some cooler air, dropping highs into the low 80s here in the Valley (which is right near normal for this time of year).
Winds will continue to be an issue across Arizona next week too as a series of storms pass by.
Those storms could also bring chances for rain and snow to parts of Arizona toward the middle of next week. Stay tuned for updates as we get closer.
