What is the weather like today in Phoenix?

Phoenix weather is especially important to monitor during periods of extreme heat. In addition to the actual temperature, check the forecast's heat index or other heat-risk information, overnight temperatures, wind and any excessive-heat alerts. A very hot afternoon combined with warm overnight conditions can increase heat stress. If you're planning outdoor activities, check hourly conditions and consider avoiding the hottest part of the day. Weather forecasts are also useful for identifying sudden dust storms or strong winds that can affect driving conditions.
