"Today is probably going to be the last generally active monsoon day for the Phoenix area," says Austin Jamison, an NWS meteorologist. "Then drier air will start to work its way into Arizona from the west … and we'll see warmer temperatures as well."

Jamison says that while temperatures will begin creeping back up into the 106-108 range over the weekend, the good news is that highs today will only be around 100.

He also says that while isolated thunderstorms are predicted to dump more rain across the Valley today, there's no indication we'll experience anything quite like the epic storm we got Tuesday evening that shut down highways and left many without power.

And speaking of Tuesday's storm, if you missed it (or just feel like reliving it now or over the hot and dry weekend) the NWS has rolled out a gorgeous new website full of photos and videos and interesting facts about what so far has been this year's biggest monsoon event.
