PHOENIX — A weak storm system is bringing light rain and scattered snow showers to the high country this morning.
While some sprinkles were reported in the Valley overnight, no measurable rainfall was recorded at Sky Harbor.
With no rain on Thursday, the current dry streak has officially reached 147 days, tying 2023 for the second longest on record. The all-time record, set in 1972, stands at 160 consecutive days without measurable rain.
In the high country, little to no accumulation is anticipated with the morning snow showers.
This storm system will not only help improve air quality but also usher in cooler temperatures.
In Phoenix, daytime highs will dip to the mid-60s today and Saturday, with overnight lows dropping to the mid-30s to low-40s by Saturday morning.
Expect temperatures to stay in the mid-to-upper 60s through the Martin Luther King Jr. Day weekend and much of the upcoming week.
