Phoenix, Arizona – Unseasonably warm temperatures will grip Phoenix this week, with highs soaring to 91°F by Friday and relentless sunshine dominating the Valley through the weekend.
According to the National Weather Service, calm conditions will continue Wednesday, with a high near 89°F before westerly winds pick up slightly in the afternoon. Overnight lows are expected to drop to a comfortable 62°F, offering mild relief before the mercury climbs again on Thursday and Friday. Daytime temperatures will hover near 90°F, with Friday marking the week’s peak at 91°F. Winds remain light, shifting from west to southwest at 5 to 10 mph, and no precipitation is expected across Maricopa County.
Residents in Glendale, Tempe, and Scottsdale should prepare for dry, sunny days and clear nights, making it ideal for outdoor activities but increasing the need for hydration and sun protection. No weather-related road closures or utility impacts are anticipated, but those sensitive to heat should limit strenuous activity during afternoon hours.
This stretch of above-average warmth arrives well ahead of the region’s typical summer heat, so officials advise monitoring vulnerable individuals and pets. Sunny, dry weather is expected to continue into next week, with the next update coming if conditions change.
