Phoenix residents can expect to see a mingling of clouds and sun with a gentle ascent in temperature over the week, according to recent forecasts. The city, known for its robust heat, will be greeted by increasing clouds today with highs reaching a comfortable 68 degrees, the National Weather Service reported. A calm east-southeast breeze will rustle through at a mild 5 mph.
As the sun sets, the city's skies will clear, with a low temperature hovering around 46 degrees and the winds taking a pause. For the early risers on Thursday, they can look forward to brilliant sunshine with the mercury expected to climb even higher near 73 degrees—a pattern of increasing warmth that seems to extend well into Friday, the National Weather Service mentioned in a statement.
The clear skies at night will give way to more clouds as the weekend approaches, nonetheless, the highs will remain in the pleasant mid-70s. However, as Fox 10 Phoenix indicates, a shift is expected starting Sunday, with a forecasted high of only 62 degrees and the potential for showers to dampen the cityscape.
The work week appears to reiterate Sunday's theme. Inhabitants of Phoenix should have their umbrellas at the ready with chances of showers from Sunday and into the earlier parts of the following week, where temperatures will fluctuate around the mid to high 60s. Evenings are predicted to experience similarities in weather with lows consistently around the low 50s.
Perhaps in preparation for the change in weather, Phoenix's wardrobe will transition from sunglasses to raincoats, proving once again the ever-changing nature of desert climates. For further weather updates and details on the likelihood of precipitation, citizens can refer to the forecasts on the National Weather Service and Fox 10 Phoenix.
