Phoenix. A Red Flag Warning is in effect this weekend, and that's not background noise — that's the headline you need to carry with you today.
Let's start with where we are this morning. Sixty-six degrees right now, mostly clear skies, humidity still relatively present but that won't last.
Those fifteen to twenty-five mile per hour winds aren't just a fire concern. They're going to make ninety-eight degrees feel more aggressive than ninety-eight degrees on a calm day.
The Red Flag Warning is specifically targeting higher elevations this Sunday. No outdoor burning.
The weekend stays hot and breezy. Saturday through Sunday, expect highs near one hundred degrees.
