Phoenix is heating up to a high near 104°F this Sunday, June 7, under mostly sunny skies — a quintessential early summer desert day with zero rain in sight. Get your outdoor time in early, hydrate relentlessly, and it will be a great day.
Today’s Setup
The National Weather Service puts Phoenix at 104°F today with south winds 0 to 10 mph and a zero percent chance of rain. Overnight temperatures ease to around 75°F under mostly clear skies, with northwest winds gusting near 20 mph. Tomorrow (Monday) is a carbon copy: sunny and 104°F.
Best Window To Be Outside
Before 10 AM is your golden window. Camelback Mountain and South Mountain trails are manageable at dawn but punishing by midday. Golfers, this morning is made for you: clear skies, near-zero humidity, and calm winds. Pack golf shorts men and a full water bottle for every hole. If the dog is coming along, a dog splash pad in a shaded corner of the yard keeps them cool while you are out. For more warm-weather gear ideas, browse outdoor gear deals.
D-backs at Chase Field Today
The Arizona Diamondbacks host the Washington Nationals at Chase Field today, June 7. A 104°F day means hydration is non-negotiable — arrive early, stake out your shade, and pace yourself through the innings. Dress the part with an Arizona Diamondbacks jersey or Arizona Diamondbacks fitted cap to keep the sun off your neck. Still need seats? Get tickets on SeatGeek or Find tickets on StubHub.
Rod Stewart at Mortgage Matchup Center Monday
Rod Stewart: ONE LAST TIME lands at the Mortgage Matchup Center on Monday, June 8 — indoors and blissfully air-conditioned. The parking lot walk will still be warm, so dress light and breathable. A Rod Stewart t-shirt or Rod Stewart hat is all you need for a great show. Get tickets on SeatGeek while good seats last.
Heat & Wind Risk
No severe weather is near Phoenix this weekend — the WPC’s excessive rainfall outlook targets the Mid-Mississippi Valley entirely. That said, the National Weather Service notes daily afternoon gusts of 20–30 mph through early next week, strongest along the Lower Colorado River Valley and higher terrain communities. Secure patio furniture and umbrellas before heading out. The bigger watch: NWS forecasters are already signaling temperatures approaching 110°F by the end of next work week. Now is a smart time to add blackout curtains — they make a real difference when the heat pushes that high, taking pressure off your AC before summer peaks.
Grill Night & Dinner Idea
Evenings cool just enough for outdoor grilling to feel genuinely enjoyable. Fire up a propane gas grill for burgers, steaks, or grilled chicken with corn on the cob. An instant-read meat thermometer is the easiest upgrade for perfect doneness every time, and a grill brush and scraper set keeps your grates clean and ready. With Father’s Day right around the corner, a Father’s Day grilling set is a timely and practical gift — and our guide to smoking tri-tip like brisket has the technique down cold. Need ingredients? You can order groceries on Amazon and have everything for tonight’s dinner delivered to your door.
Next Few Days
Monday holds at 104°F with sunny skies and calm winds. After that, the National Weather Service is watching temperatures climb toward 110°F by Friday into next weekend. Your early-morning outdoor window shrinks each day as the season deepens. The silver lining: dry conditions hold through at least the next seven days — no monsoon yet, just Phoenix doing what Phoenix does in June.
