FIRST ALERT FORECAST: Rain to potentially come early as excessive heat is on the way
As the Desert Southwest goes through a slight cooldown, temps will continually increase over the next seven days
YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) - Monsoonal moisture will lead to continued rain chances of 10 to 30 percent on the lower deserts and 30 to 50 percent over the higher terrain through Thursday.
A gradual decline will take place from west to east beginning Friday with storm chances limited to south-central Arizona.
Anticipate high temperatures to be lower than they have been in several weeks but still near, to slightly above, normal.
A warming trend is anticipated for early next week with highs climbing above 110 at most lower desert locations by next Tuesday.
