Another winter storm is on the way!

The biggest impacts will be across the Arizona high country on Wednesday with lots of snow and white-out conditions at times.

Wednesday is an ABC15 Weather Action Day. Secure loose items outside. It's going to get gusty!

The states that share the Colorado River have failed to reach a deal by the federal government's deadline. What's next? More talk, but also the possibility of a long court battle while climate change continues to threaten reservoir storage and users.

I'm tracking two storm systems that will bring cooler air, rain and snow to Arizona over the next week.

The best bet for Valley rain on Friday will be in the afternoon and early evening.

Up to a tenth of an inch of rain is possible in some neighborhoods.

It's not just Phoenix.

Much of Arizona is in the middle of one of the warmest winters on record.

Another 80° day in Phoenix today!

That makes 17 days in the 80s so far this winter, the 4th most on record.

Tomorrow will be another close one with a forecast high of 79°.

This is the warmest start to February on record in Phoenix by a long shot!

Plants are confused and blooming early.

Snowpack is among the lowest years on record across Arizona too.

While it may feel "nice" out, there are serious impacts to our environment/water supply.

Another gorgeous day expected at @WMPhoenixOpen on Friday!

Stay hydrated and slather on the sunscreen. You'll only have about 45 minutes to be outside before you get fried.

Just a few days left in January...

This will go down as one of the warmest on record in Phoenix!

Here's a look at how things are stacking up so far:

Beautiful views across Arizona from this weekend's storm!

Not much rain in the Valley from it, but several inches of snow fell across the high country.

Check out the view from ABC15 viewer Dick McBlane in Pinetop.

Northern lights will be seen much farther south than usual tonight due to a severe geomagnetic storm (G4, scale of G1-5).

In AZ:
✅Get away from city lights
✅Look to the north
✅Use a camera
✅Likely just a red glow if we see it

Winter? What winter?

The 70s are here to stay in Phoenix and the warm outlook continues into February.

Big spike in particle pollution expected Wednesday morning in the Valley!

Worst air quality will be in south-central areas of the #Phoenix metro.

Limit your outdoor activities in the morning, especially if you have any respiratory conditions like asthmas, bronchitis or COPD.
