PHOENIX — The second longest dry streak in Phoenix history is finally over!
Sky Harbor picked up 0.01 inches of rain on Wednesday, ending our 159-day stretch without measurable rain.
Up north, many parts of the high country have seen snow this week and there's still a chance for a bit more along the Mogollon Rim and into the White Mountains before this winter storm clears out Thursday morning.
High pressure will build in next, sending Valley temperatures into the 70s this weekend.
Next week looks even warmer with Phoenix in the low to mid 80s on Monday and Tuesday.
Overnight temperatures will be warming up, too. Much of the Valley will see lows in the 50s by this weekend.
Temperatures will drop again toward the middle to end of next week, but we should stay in the 70s across the Valley for this year's Phoenix Open.
