PHOENIX — Sizzling Valley temperatures will be short lived as monsoon storm chances return.
More monsoon moisture will flow in later this afternoon and we'll see daily storm chances through next week.
Downpours, lightning and hail with are possible with any storms that develop. Flooding is also possible, especially near wildfire burn scars.
Storms may also produce blowing dust in southern and central Arizona, reducing visibility to less than an mile.
A Flood Watch is in effect across central Arizona through Monday morning.
As storm chances increase, temperatures will drop.
Look for a high of 104 today in Phoenix and the low 100s by Monday with early morning lows in the 80s.
