Yuma, Arizona (KYMA, KECY-TV) – Warmer than normal temperatures will continue in the high 90’s this afternoon before temperatures start to cool off tonight and into tonight.

A flood warning is in effect as of Tuesday, May 2, at 5:00 p.m., as water from the Painted Rock Dam continues to flow through Yuma County and down the Gila River.

Impacts include closure of unbridged crossings, flooding of lowland farmlands, and recreational interests along rivers.

A weather system passing northeast of the region will bring light winds across the region tomorrow.

A high-pressure ridge strengthens over the western United States later in the week and into next weekend, and a warming trend brings temperatures up next Serval Day.

Highs are expected to rise in the late 90s, so far with the first triple-digit rounds of the year.

Watch out for record heat on Sunday as Yuma’s record is 103 degrees and El Centro’s is 104 degrees.
