The persistent heat wave that suffocated Phoenix for most of July was slightly easing on Thursday after the first major monsoon storm of the season kicked up dust and high winds and brought the first measurable rainfall in months.
A jet takes flight as heat ripples radiate from the runway, Tuesday, July 25, 2023 at Sky Harbor International Airport, in Phoenix. Phoenix this month shattered its record for consecutive days in which the temperature reached at least 110 degrees Fahrenheit , standing at 26 days and counting as of Tuesday.
“The heat wave is not over yet,” said Tom Frieders, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Phoenix. “It will continue to be hot, but we're hoping that once we get beyond Saturday it will start to cool off.” No injuries were reported, but some people in that area temporarily lost power when utility poles were knocked down. Scores of trees were toppled across the region.
