PHOENIX — Those staying in town during Memorial Day weekend will be treated to sunny, hot weather, according to meteorologists.
High temperatures will hover between 90-100 degrees during the long weekend, the National Weather Service said.
Friday’s high is forecast for 97 degrees before dipping to 90 degrees on Saturday. Temperatures will then jump to 95 degrees on Sunday and 100 degrees on the holiday Monday.
High Temperature Outlook: High temperatures to close the workweek will be right at normal for this time of year. A dry system Saturday will lower temperatures a little, but then high pressure will lead to temperatures warming back into the 100s early next week. #azwx #cawx pic.twitter.com/W4x0w8E5O1
