MOST ACCURATE FORECAST: Monsoon storm chances continue across Arizona

Posted
and last updated

PHOENIX — We're heading into the final days of the 2022 Monsoon season, but storm chances are still in play.

Most of the action on Thursday will be across western and southern Arizona, but there is a slight chance of an isolated storm or two in the Valley.

Watch out for gusty winds, blowing dust, lightning and brief heavy downpours with any of the storms that hit our state.

Storm chances will continue at 10 percent here in the Valley on Friday and Saturday, too.

The monsoon season officially ends this Friday, September 30th, but storm chances for the higher terrain will continue throughout all of next week.

We could soon be nearing the end of our 100-degree temperatures for 2022, as well. Phoenix's average last 100-degree day is October 5th.

Right now, it looks like daytime highs will hover in the upper 90s to low 100s through the weekend and into next week.
