Phoenix residents can look forward to clear skies and mild temperatures, according to the latest weather update. The forecast for today in Phoenix, AZ, promises a sunny day with a high near 71 degrees, says the National Weather Service. Calm conditions are expected with an eastern breeze picking up to around 5 mph. It seems like a perfect backdrop for those needing to step outside, catch some rays, or simply enjoy the cool, dry tranquility of a typical Arizonan December day.
The absence of clouds will continue into the evening, dropping the temperatures to a low of around 45. This pattern of sunny days and clear nights is set to remain steady throughout the week. For instance, Tuesday will see a high near 69 degrees and tranquil calm winds, according to the National Weather Service. The prediction for Wednesday through Friday echoes this sentiment, with highs oscillating between 66 and 67 degrees, and lows consistently hovering in the mid-forties.
Looking ahead, the end of the week won't stray from this pattern. Thursday's forecast adds a slight variation with a northeast wind around 5 mph becoming west northwest in the afternoon, peaking with a high near 67 degrees. The nighttime sky for the latter half of the week is expected to remain mostly clear, which should provide residents with ample opportunity to enjoy the evening hours under the stars.
As the week progresses, the weekend is set to maintain the status quo. Saturday's forecast promises more sunshine with a pleasantly consistent high near 67 degrees, and the wind remaining a subtle note, turning east southeast around 5 mph in the afternoon. Come Sunday, sun worshippers will be greeted with temperatures close to 70 degrees, the wind once again a gentle eastward whisper at about 5 mph. All signs point to a week where a jacket might be the most necessary accessory for Phoenix locals, as they enjoy the consistently mild afternoons and crisp evenings.
