The Big Apple is not alone in experiencing fluctuating spring temperatures; Phoenix residents are set to ride a similar thermal roller coaster this week. According to the National Weather Service, today's high in Phoenix could hit near 95 degrees under sunny skies, with a breezy east wind turning southwesterly. The rest of the day will see mercury levels drop modestly to around 65 degrees overnight, under mostly clear conditions.

Tomorrow's forecast suggests a slight reprieve with a daytime high near 91 degrees, and a comfortable low around 63 come evening. However, by the end of the week, things heat up again. By Monday, an anticipated high near 94 degrees is on the radar, as the National Weather Service reported.

Meanwhile, FOX 10 Phoenix's weather update adds more perspective to the short-term forecast. With a high of 97 degrees feeling like a head-on collision with summer, Phoenix's current temperature sits at a mild 73 degrees as of the pre-dawn hours. The local outlet outlines a steady climb in temperatures through the late morning, eventually hitting a peak of 95 degrees by the mid-afternoon.

The remainder of this week according to FOX 10's seven-day forecast, will see a mix of sunny skies and clear nights. A brief cooling is expected, with Thursday's high reaching only 82 degrees, before the temperatures ascend once more toward a scorching 99 degrees by next Tuesday. Notably, in the evenings, temperatures will stay consistently in the low 60s, providing some nocturnal respite from the daytime heat.
