PHOENIX — It's been a wet and snowy start to the new year across Arizona!
Our latest storm is now clearing out and our forecast is finally drying out on Wednesday.
Clouds will continue to pass through, but we are not expecting any rain or snow across Arizona.
Temperatures will warm up a bit, too.
Expect highs back in the mid 60s across the Valley, putting us near average for this time of year.
The next storm moving in will impact northwestern Arizona by mid-day Thursday, the Flagstaff area by Thursday afternoon and the Valley by Thursday night.
Flagstaff could see another one to three inches of snow, but we're expecting less than a tenth of an inch of rain in the Valley (if we get any at all.)
The storm will quickly clear out Friday morning and the forecast is looking dry through the weekend as daytime temperatures stay in the mid 60s.
