Another low-pressure system is approaching Arizona. According to AZFamily forecasts, rain could arrive as early as late Monday, with the heaviest precipitation expected Tuesday.
On Saturday, Nov. 14, skies over the Phoenix Valley were cloudy but were expected to partially clear during the day. The temperature in the city reached about 70°F (21°C). Light, scattered precipitation was forecast for northern Arizona.
Sunday is expected to be a brief break between systems: according to AZFamily’s Thursday forecast, it will be mostly sunny, with a high in the Valley of about 74°F (23°C).
The next system is expected to move over Arizona on Monday night. Chances of rain will continue from late Monday through early Wednesday. Forecasts indicate Tuesday could bring precipitation for most of the day, with more possible late in the week.
Meteorologists describe this system as cooler and wetter than the previous ones. Highs in the Valley could fall to the upper 60s°F (about 20°C) in the middle of the week. Snow is possible in northern Arizona. The timing and amount of precipitation are still uncertain, so forecasts may change.
Residents may want to check the latest updates before Tuesday’s commute. Wet pavement could slow traffic, and road conditions in the northern part of the state could worsen.
