80s rule this week, but next weekend brings chance of change

PHOENIX (AZFamily) — Highs have reached the low 80s so far today. Temperatures will dip to 59 by early Monday morning before climbing to 84 Monday afternoon, slightly above the average high of 80. Above-normal temperatures will continue through Friday, with highs between 82 and 85 degrees.

Next weekend, a disturbance moving in from the west will bring a slight chance of showers Saturday and Sunday. The system may move through in two phases, so there is considerable uncertainty about rainfall. There is more confidence in the temperature forecast, with highs expected to fall into the upper 70s.

Flood warnings remain in effect along parts of the Verde, Salt and Gila rivers through at least Monday morning. Avoid water-related recreational activities in the warning areas.

In the high country, northeast winds will make for breezy conditions at times. There is a chance of rain next weekend, but confidence in the forecast remains low.
