FIRST ALERT FORECAST: Clear skies and hot temperatures ahead

While skies are expected to clear up throughout the week, temperatures will continue to rise

YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) - Scattered showers and thunderstorms will continue through the rest of this afternoon, mainly in Arizona, with stronger activity capable of producing flash flooding. Rain chances will shift focus mostly to the northern Arizona high terrain and southeast Arizona the next couple days, but any storm that develops will still be capable of heavy rain. Expansive cloud cover will yield well below normal temperatures the next couple days followed by readings warming back towards the seasonal normal into the weekend.
