PHOENIX — Storm chances are sticking around across Arizona!

The area of low pressure that brought widespread, strong storms on Monday will linger just east of our state before moving back toward the west-southwest on Thursday.

This area of low pressure will sit to our southwest through Friday before moving back through Arizona this weekend as it gets pulled back up into the main Jetstream.

It will bring daily storm chances across our state through the weekend, with the best potential coming Saturday and Sunday.

Storms that develop will be capable of producing strong winds, areas of blowing dust, hail and heavy rain, so stay weather-aware.

Temperatures will continue to drop by a degree or two each day through the weekend.

Valley highs will reach the low to mid 90s through the end of the week, before cooling into the low 90s Saturday and Sunday.

The mornings will feel more fall-like, dropping into the 70s each day.

Then, temperatures are finally expected to drop into the upper 80s for highs beginning Tuesday with lows in the upper 60s!
