Phoenix is about to experience something that has never happened in March.

102° by Wednesday.

105° by Thursday.

Some daily records could shatter by 10 degrees 🌡️

105° would also tie the hottest temperature ever recorded in APRIL.

It’s only March.

100° by Tuesday

102° by Wednesday.

Potential 105°+ by next weekend.

The ridge building next week may be the strongest ever recorded for the Southwest in March… or ANY April 🌡️

Look at that 7-day forecast and then consider this: Phoenix has hit 100 degrees in March exactly one time ever.

March 26, 1988.

Next Tuesday we could break it. Then keep going.

100 to 105 degrees expected next Tuesday through AT LEAST next Friday.

Showers exit today, then we flip the switch 🌦➡️☀️

Temps surge from the 70s Tuesday to near RECORD HIGHS by the weekend.

We're talking 95-97°... and the first 100° of the season could arrive early next week🌡️🔥

Rain 🌧️
Thunder 🌩️
Then record heat 🌡️

A storm system brings showers and thunderstorms Monday night with small hail possible.

Then high pressure takes over and temperatures explode into the 90s by Thursday.

Rain chances, wind, and then... record heat?

A cut-off low brings rain chances Monday night into Tuesday for Phoenix. Then high pressure slams the door and temperatures rocket to the low-to-mid 90s by end of next week.

Two records in the crosshairs:
94° Thursday.
92° Friday.

73 today → 92 by next Thursday 🌡️

That's a 19-degree swing in one week... and Thursday is flirting with the all-time record of 94° set in 1900.

Enjoy the cool Friday and the scattered rain chances early next week, Phoenix.

💨 It's gonna be a WINDY one today, Arizona.

Secure the patio furniture and hold onto your hats!

85° today in Phoenix

10° above normal for early March, but at least it ain't the 90s!

A cooldown is coming, but we're back in the 80s by the weekend🎢

It’s also the fourth straight day Phoenix has tied or broken a record high 🌡️

Phoenix just TIED its all-time hottest February temperature on record today.

Tomorrow could be just as hot, if not hotter.

Near-record heat through the weekend… then a slight cooldown.

Still staying WELL above normal into next week, with breezier conditions returning.

It’s not just Phoenix.

From Tucson to Flagstaff, several Arizona cities are flirting with record heat today as temperatures surge 15–20° above normal.

Unseasonably hot statewide.

Late February and early March heat is going OFF the charts🔥

Highs in the mid-90s could break records 3 days in a row in Phoenix... and challenge all-time February heat at Sky Harbor.

This is 15–20° above normal.

90° in February… again 🔥

Most of the Valley missed the 90s yesterday, but if we hit 90°+ today, it would be just the 9th time on record Phoenix has reached the 90s in February... nearly a month ahead of the average first 90° day (March 30).

Phoenix hit the brakes just short of 90° today 😮‍💨

Most of the Valley escaped the 90s for the first time in this stretch (minus Glendale and Peoria)… but don’t get used to it.

Mid-90s are back Friday and sticking around through the weekend. 🌡️

First 90s of 2026 arriving more than a month early in Phoenix.

Near-record heat through the weekend, then a gradual cooldown next week.
