First 110º day of the year in Phoenix

Right around 4:30 p.m. today (June 14th), the thermometer at Phoenix Sky Harbor hit 110º for the first time this year. The average first 110º day is June 11th, so at least we were able to hold off a few extra days this year. If you are keeping score, the earliest first 110º day happened in 1989 and occurred on May 8th!

Afternoon high temperatures will remain at or above 110º for at least the next week, so be sure to take precautions to stay cool and hydrated.
