Phoenix is bracing for a week of unwavering sunshine and escalating heat, with temperatures set to soar into the high 90s as April comes to a close. According to the National Weather Service, today's forecast boasts a sunny sky with a high reaching 82 degrees, and winds that could gust up to 21 mph. Tonight, the clear skies persist with the mercury dipping to around 60.

Looking ahead, the warmth intends to stay, with the NWS predicting sunny days through next Wednesday, as the high for Tuesday is forecasted at nearly a scorching 98 degrees. Meanwhile, Friday's conditions are anticipated to replicate those of today, with temperatures peaking at 82 degrees and gusty winds ramping up in the afternoon. The high for Saturday is expected to hover at around 81 degrees before climbing into the mid-80s on Sunday, then jumping into the 90s at the start of next week.

Contrasting this, FOX10 Phoenix offers a slightly cooler outlook for the nighttime temperatures, suggesting that lows may drop to 62 degrees as of 4:53 a.m. MST today. The site ascertains, that the following evening, temperatures will bottom out at 59 degrees, offering a brief reprieve from the day's heat.

The consistency of the clear, sunny weather is remarkable as both agencies confirm zero chances of precipitation throughout the week. For those seeking respite from the heat, the evenings may provide a cooler atmosphere; however, they'll still remain relatively warm with lows projected in the low to mid-60s for most nights. Come next Wednesday, the daytime high is touted to reach a sweltering 96 degrees, necessitating an early reach for sunscreen and water bottles for Phoenix residents, and tourists alike.
