Weekend Weather Outlook: Storms, Hail, and Sunny Skies
Storms are expected to develop east and southeast of the Valley of the Sun starting on Saturday afternoon, with the best chances for rain in the lower desert area on Sunday. The National Weather Service advises that there is a possibility of strong winds, blowing dust, and lightning in these storms. This comes after a 122-day streak without measurable rainfall in Phoenix, making it the city's sixth-longest dry spell since 1896.
