Phoenix Hits First 110°F of 2026, More Heat Expected This Week
US · Published Jun 15, 2026
Phoenix experienced its first 110°F (43°C) day of the year on June 13, 2026, just before 4 p.m., marking the start of a prolonged heatwave.
According to AZFamily, temperatures are expected to remain high throughout the week, with daily highs ranging from 105°F to 110°F (40°C to 43°C).

Why It's Important?

The extreme heat poses risks of heat-related illnesses, particularly for vulnerable populations such as the elderly, children, and outdoor workers. The warm overnight temperatures will provide little relief, increasing the risk of heat stress. Isolated thunderstorms in the higher terrain could lead to localized gusty winds and light rain, but significant impacts are not expected in the Phoenix metro area. Residents in the High Country should remain cautious of scattered storms, which may bring brief heavy rain and lightning.
