As of Sunday, June 7, 2026, Phoenix Sky Harbor started the morning under clear skies with temperatures around 82°F, a deceptively pleasant setup ahead of another scorching day. The National Weather Service expects a high near 104°F this afternoon with virtually no chance of rain.

Hot Week Ahead

Phoenix stays locked in the low to upper 100s all week, with highs near 104°F on Sunday and Monday, warming to about 105 to 106°F by midweek and peaking around 108 to 109°F on Thursday and Friday. Forecasters expect temperatures to edge close to the 110°F mark by Friday, June 12, which would make this the hottest stretch of the season so far. According to the National Weather Service, there is little relief on tap through the weekend.

Breezy Afternoons And Low Humidity

Light winds in the morning will shift to the west or southwest in the afternoon, with gusts around 20 mph. Afternoon humidity will dip into the low teens, and overnight lows will only fall into the mid 70s, which means the heat will barely let up after sunset. Those dry, breezy afternoons are expected to raise localized fire concerns in nearby higher terrain, although no heat watches or warnings are currently in effect for the city.

Heat Safety And Cooling Options

Officials urge residents to move strenuous activities to early morning or evening hours, drink plenty of water throughout the day, and check on elderly neighbors and pets during peak heat. The City of Phoenix operates cooling centers and hydration stations across the Valley; current locations and hours are available from the City of Phoenix, or by calling 2-1-1 for assistance.
