Posted
and last updated

PHOENIX — Temperatures are sizzling as we kick off September!

Valley highs will top out between 106 and 110 degrees heading into Labor Day weekend.

Limit your time outside during the heat of the day and keep your pets inside, too.

Cars heat up fast! So, don't leave your kids or pets unattended in your vehicle.

While we may see a few spotty storms in the higher terrain and in southeastern Arizona, our Valley forecast is looking dry on Thursday.

We'll see a slight chance (10 percent) of an isolated storm or two making it down from the higher terrain and into the Valley on Friday, but that's it.

Our forecast is looking mostly sunny and dry across the Phoenix metro area over Labor Day weekend as daily temperatures continue to flirt with 110 degrees.
