PHOENIX — For the start of the week, we're tracking two storm systems that will pick up our winds and bring rain and snow chances back to our state.
A Wind Advisory will be in place Monday and Tuesday for Northern and Northeastern Arizona as gusts are expected to reach 50 mph.
In the Valley, breezes will pick up Tuesday with gusts near 35 mph at times.
Here in the Valley, we'll see a slight chance of isolated showers on Monday and Tuesday. Another slight chance of a stray shower or two comes our way Wednesday night into Thursday morning.
The valley is only expected to get about a tenth of an inch of rain.
Better chances for rain across Northern Arizona with these systems about a quarter to a half inch is expected.
Snow levels will be around 7,000 ft with only about an inch of snow expected. Typical spots, like the San Francisco Peaks, White Mountains and Kaibab Plateau could see between two to eight inches of snow.
Temperatures will continue to drop, too. Phoenix will fall into the mid-70s on Tuesday and Wednesday with early morning lows in the low to mid-50s.
