Hot Tucson

Tucson will more than likely experience another day of high temperatures and no thunderstorms today. 

However, there is a slight chance of storms tonight south of Tucson. 

Storm chances in Tucson are expected to increase this weekend. Fingers crossed that we get some rain!

And just a fun fact: The National Weather Service reports that today's low temperature was recorded at 73 degrees. On Aug. 29, 1917, the low was 58 degrees — which was the last time a 50-degree temperature was recorded in August. 

High: 102

Low: 77
