Phoenix, AZ – Showers and storms are expected to increase across central and eastern Arizona this weekend. A tropical moisture system paired with an incoming low-pressure system will bring the potential for heavy rain. These storms could result in localized flash flooding in affected areas.
According to the National Weather Service in Phoenix, the best timing for storms looks to be Saturday night into Sunday. Rain chances will continue through Monday night, gradually diminishing as the week begins. Temperatures are expected to return to near-normal Friday and Saturday before cooling below normal by Sunday.
However, some uncertainty remains about the strength of the low-pressure system, rain totals, and the exact timing of the storms. The system is expected to bring relief from the recent heat but could also pose hazards due to flash flooding. Residents are encouraged to stay updated on weather developments throughout the weekend.
Prepare for possible disruptions and flooding, especially in flood-prone areas. Keep a close eye on forecasts for any changes in storm intensity and timing.
