This week in Phoenix, enjoy predominantly sunny weather with occasional cloud cover. With a comfortable range of 70 to 100 degrees, it’s the ideal time for outdoor activities. However, if you’re up north or towards the coast, expect varied conditions from rain showers in Northern California to snow in higher elevations. Stay updated with us for more!
In the Southwest region, the radar shows a variety of weather conditions. Across Northern California, including areas like Redding and San Francisco, rain showers are making their way inland, offering much-needed moisture. As you move southward towards Fresno and Bakersfield, the rain continues, bringing relief from dry conditions. Higher elevations in the Sierra Nevada are seeing snow, adding to the mountain snowpack. In Nevada, from Reno down to Ely, skies are mostly clear, though Ely might occasionally experience some isolated clouds without significant precipitation. Over in Utah, areas such as Salt Lake City are staying dry for now. Southern portions, including Los Angeles and San Diego, are experiencing mild weather with a few clouds dotting the skies but nothing too concerning. Meanwhile, Las Vegas remains dry, with clear skies prevalent. Towards Arizona, Flagstaff is seeing chilly conditions, with the possibility of light snowflakes occasionally drifting through the air.
Tomorrow morning in Phoenix, we’re starting the day with temperatures in the comfortable 70 degrees range by 8 AM and staying steady through 10 AM. Expect a partly to mostly cloudy sky throughout the morning, gradually giving way to full cloud cover by noon. A gentle east-southeast breeze at 6 miles per hour will settle in, providing a light, refreshing feel to the brisk morning air as temperatures climb to 79 degrees by afternoon.
Here’s the regional high temperature rundown for the Southwest this Sunday: In Los Angeles, expect a pleasant high of 70 degrees. San Diego will be slightly cooler with a high of 68 degrees. Heading inland, Bakersfield and Fresno will warm up nicely, both reaching 83 degrees. Las Vegas is set to sizzle with a high of 89 degrees, significantly above average for this time of year. In the mountainous regions, Flagstaff will have a mild day with a high of 70 degrees, while Cedar City sees a comfortable 67 degrees. Ely, Nevada, will be cooler at 62 degrees. Moving up to Redding, temperatures will reach a warm 84 degrees, showcasing a trend of above-average highs across much of the region.
In the Southwest, expect ample sunshine over Arizona and New Mexico with temperatures climbing to the mid-80s, fostering a warm and pleasant atmosphere. However, as we move toward Southern Nevada and Western Utah, a different scenario unfolds. Here, watch for scattered showers and thunderstorm activity, primarily in the afternoon and evening hours. This precipitation will bring gusty winds and potentially bring brief periods of heavy rain, which may cause localized flooding. Temperatures in these areas are cooler, hovering around the low 70s. Northern and Central California face another round of rain, particularly across the Sierra foothills, where slick roads could make for hazardous travel.
The UV index in Phoenix on Saturday will reach a very high level of 8, with a burn time of just 17 minutes under direct sunlight. On Sunday, the UV index will decrease to a moderate level of 6, where the burn time extends to 23 minutes.
