Extreme Heat and Storms Ahead | Tucson News

Scorching heat and dangerous air quality are hitting the Valley hard — with temps hitting 105-110 degrees and little relief overnight. Areas like Metro Tucson, Marana, and Oro Valley are under an Air Quality Alert due to high ozone, so if you’re sensitive, stay inside. While today and tomorrow bring oppressive heat, the weekend could bring a twist: isolated storms possible today, but the real action kicks in Saturday through Tuesday. Health officials are sounding the alarm — stay hydrated, avoid the sun, and brace for a combo of heat and storms. By Monday, there’s a 50% chance of rain, which might cool things down a bit — but temps will still hover in the high 90s. Stay alert, stay safe, and prepare for whatever Mother Nature serves up.
