The weather station at Sky Harbor International Airport has recorded half an inch of rain so far.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Late-season monsoonal moisture will bring slightly below-average temperatures this week, as highs will hover in the low to mid-90s.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Storm chances taper off by Saturday, Sept. 6, and drier air will return, sending high temperatures up again to the upper 90s and low 100s next week.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cIt will warm up again towards the
