PHOENIX — Thunderstorms impacted parts of the Valley tonight with gusty winds, rain and lightning.
Phoenix Sky Harbor picked up 0.02 inches of rain.
Those storms are now clearing out and high pressure will be building back in. That will dry out our forecast for the rest of the week and warm it up, too.
Valley highs will climb into the low to mid 80s Thursday, Friday and Saturday, putting us several degrees above normal for this time of year.
Another storm system will bring cooler air our way on Sunday and Monday, with more wind, rain and snow chances too.
Right now, our best chances for rain and snow will be on Sunday.
Valley locations could see up to a tenth of an inch of rain.
Up north, the snow level will drop to around 5,500 feet with the potential of one to four inches of snow for areas along the Mogollon Rim.
Stay tuned for updates on this storm as we get closer.
