Morning Weather Forecast - 4/30/23

The Valley could see its first 100° day of the year today.

PHOENIX - Temperatures in Phoenix have now reached more than 100 degrees for the first time this year, the National Weather Service confirmed Sunday afternoon.

As of 3:25 p.m., Phoenix tied the 102 degree record.

"Sky Harbor currently sits at 102 degrees. And with that, we have now tied the record high temperature for this date. The previous record high was set back in 1943. Will we break the 80 year old record before the day is done?" the National Weather Service of Phoenix said on Twitter.

A high of 102 is forecast officially at Sky Harbor Airport, with the metro area ranging between 99 and 103 degrees.

Thanks to the hot and dry conditions forecast Sunday, plus increasing winds by Monday, a Fire Weather Watch was issued by the National Weather for most of the Southern half of Arizona, including Phoenix and Maricopa County.

The Valley saw its first 100°F day on May 7 last year and on May 5 in 2021. On average, the city experiences triple-digit temperatures for the first time on May 2.
