PHOENIX — Get ready for a warm week in the Valley!
As high pressure builds in, temperatures are soaring.

A weak storm system will move through northern Arizona on Wednesday picking up winds and bringing a few showers up there.
The Valley will stay dry, but breezes will pick up and we'll see a slight drop in temperatures by Thursday.
Then, we're tracking another storm system moving in over the weekend.
Winds will pick up on Sunday bringing a big dose of cooler air in.
Valley temperatures will drop more than 10 degrees, falling into the mid 70s Sunday and Monday.
We'll also see a chance for showers across the state, too.
