Starting Monday, temperatures will rise to around 5-7°F above average as Major HeatRisk developing across the lower deserts. An Extreme Heat Warning is in effect for the lower deserts of AZ and southeast CA for Monday through Friday.

Temperatures will rise to above normal starting Monday with daily highs across the lower deserts between 109-113°F Monday-Friday. Overnight lows will also warm well into the 80s to as warm as the lower 90s in central Phoenix. Areas of Major HeatRisk also return by Monday and forecast to last through the entire work week. Extreme Heat Warnings are in effect for much of the area Monday-Friday.
