PHOENIX — We are not done yet with this latest storm system. The cut-off low is stalled over central Arizona which is leading to the scattered rain and snow showers continuing across our state.

Rain chances are possible across the Valley this evening, It could be pretty hit or miss with less than a tenth of an inch expected.

A different story up north as the snow will continue for the next few days. With a few more inches of snow expected in areas above 7,000 ft.
