Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport recorded 100 degrees on Sunday — 13 degrees above normal. It was the first triple-digit temperature of 2024.
The National Weather Service in Phoenix forecasts more high temperatures for the beginning of the work week. However, a cooldown could be coming later.
“So temperatures are going to be going into the middle below 90s through the middle of the week and then we’ll be back into the middle to upper 80s going into next weekend," said meteorologist Alex Young.
Young says temperatures could hit 100 degrees on Monday.
For the first time this year Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport recorded a high temperature of 100 degrees. We were 13 degrees above normal and we were just 3 degrees away from tying the record high temperature set back in 2012. Similar high temperatures are expected tomorrow. #azwx pic.twitter.com/IGfJu5KX0G
