Published April 20, 2020 8:52 AM

YUMA COUNTY, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY)- High temperatures are expected to reach triple digits later this week.

According to the National Weather Service (NWS), a dry westerly flow aloft will allow temperatures to climb to near seasonal normals today before one more weak disturbance passes quickly through the area on Tuesday.

Aside from an increase in winds Monday night over southeast California and on Tuesday afternoon across the region, no impacts are expected.

Much warmer conditions with high temperatures in the 90s are expected for Wednesday into the weekend as a strong ridge of high pressure aloft builds in over the region.

Highs may approach 100 degrees over the lower deserts by this weekend.
