TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — Monsoon is coming back to life and will help bring an end to the extreme heat that has been baking southern Arizona.

Extreme Heat Warnings remain in effect through Saturday evening, but high pressure is shifting to the east and will allow more moisture to flow across southern Arizona over the next few days.

This additional moisture will help produce more thunderstorms which will help bring the temperature down as we go through the weekend and into the beginning of next week.

Monsoon will remain more active all the way into Monday with some thunderstorms producing gusty outflow wind, heavy rain, localized flooding and even some hail.
