Arizona weather forecast: Highs remain above average in the Valley

Evening Weather Forecast - 11/10/25

Monday was warmer-than-normal, but temps will gradually drop as the week progresses. FOX 10'S Erica Horvatin has the latest on the big changes in the forecast.

PHOENIX - Big changes in the forecast this week!

Today:

Monday was a warm and breezy day in the Valley. Temperatures hit 88 degrees in Phoenix, only three degrees shy of the record high.

Winds were breezy as a front descended the mountains into the desert, but the winds will stay lighter tonight.

Tomorrow:

Temperatures will fall into the low 60s by Tuesday morning.

The afternoon will be slightly cooler, with a high of 86 degrees. High clouds will move into Arizona’s sky, but it will still be a mostly sunny day.

Later This Week:

Wednesday and Thursday will be warm, with highs in the mid-80s, but clouds will increase each day. Thursday will be the last nice, warm day before big changes.

The next big storm will bring scattered rain to the Valley and rest of the state, Friday and Saturday.

Winds in the high country could gust up to around 55 mph on Friday. Plus, much cooler temperatures will arrive on Friday and Saturday. High temperatures will only reach the 60s and low 70s Friday through next week.

Rain coming?

While most of Thursday is expected to remain dry and mostly to partly sunny, Thursday evening may see the arrival of scattered showers into western Arizona.
An area of low pressure running down the West Coast will approach our state by Thursday into Friday morning. The low will pass over Arizona on Friday and move off to the east by Saturday. As it passes through, winds will increase, temperatures will fall, scattered rain showers will pass through and some high-elevation snow will be possible.

For now, it appears the best chance for precipitation across the state, including in Phoenix, is throughout the day Friday. However, depending on the strength of the storm system and the speed at which it passes, rain/snow chances may extend into Saturday and could bring more considerable snow to high elevations. For now, a quicker solution seems more likely.

Either way, temperatures fall with the storm system. The forecast high drops to the 70s on Friday and upper 60s are possible by Saturday in the Valley. For now, the rain chance sits at 50% on Friday and 20%on Saturday. It's too early for any snow total projections, but we'll be updating the forecast as the system becomes clearer over the next several days.
