PHOENIX (AP) — A historic heat wave continues to stifle Phoenix — but the end may finally be in sight for residents of Arizona’s largest city. The National Weather Service is forecasting a high of 107 degrees Fahrenheit (41.7 degrees Celsius) on Monday and 102 F (38.8 C) on Tuesday. Either way, it eclipsed the previous record of 111 F (43.8 C) for the date, set in 1990. The city eclipsed the previous record of 53 days — set in 2020 — when it hit 114 F (45 C) Saturday. The weather service said the 114-degree mark was the latest date in a calendar year that Sky Harbor had ever recorded a temperature that high.
