Forecast Summary


One more trough of low pressure will swing through Arizona Monday producing breezy conditions here in the Valley with some light showers in the north part of the state.  Afternoon desert temperatures will be around 80°F Monday, warming to the low 90s by Wednesday.  Some of the hotter locations could approach the triple-digit mark by Friday.  Ozone will likely increase each day under high pressure as there will be plenty of sunshine and heat to aid the production process.  Particulates will be in the mid "Moderate" range Monday with the breezy conditions, decreasing slightly throughout the week with light winds.
