MESA, Ariz. – The East Valley is set for a stretch of ideal fall weather, with sunny skies, mild afternoons, and cool desert nights continuing through the week. After a partly cloudy start Monday night, high pressure will keep Mesa and the greater Phoenix area dry and warm through the weekend.

Nights will cool comfortably into the low 60s under mostly clear skies. Similar conditions will hold through midweek, with highs dipping slightly to the upper 70s Wednesday and Thursday before climbing back near 80°F by Friday.
