Phoenix residents can look forward to a spell of clear skies and calm winds, with temperatures on a gentle climb towards the weekend. According to the National Weather Service, the city's weather forecast is dominated by sunshine and mild evenings. Thursday will see highs around 76 degrees and lows near the 50-mark, while the weekend promises an even warmer embrace with the mercury flirting with the 80-degree threshold.
As December brings its typical temperate conditions to the Valley of the Sun, locals can enjoy outdoor activities without much concern for inclement weather. Overnight conditions will stay clear, and the occasional east wind is as lively as it gets. The barometric pressure, a steady 29.94 in, and humidity, a moderate 56%, paint a picture of winter as Phoenix knows it – warm days followed by slightly cooler nights.
The National Weather Service's update, last noted on December 18 at 2:51 AM MST, shows visibilities remaining at a clear 10 miles, with barely a breeze from the east-southeast to trouble the serenity. The consistency of these conditions is remarkable, considering the time of year, with the only waver being a slight increase in cloudiness as Monday night rolls in.
By midweek, a minor disturbance could bring a slight chance of showers to the region. Wednesday's forecast suggests a 20 percent chance of rain, though the general outlook remains mostly sunny with highs once again near the 77-degree mark. This information has come straight from the National Weather Service, serving as a reliable guide for those planning the week ahead.
