Well Winter Weather Has Invaded The Valley of the Sun

Starting Thursday night (November 21st) the rain showers moved into the Phoenix Metro area.  The rain continued through Friday, Saturday and into Sunday morning. Along with the rain the temperatures dropped into the forties during the nighttime hours.

The National Weather Service states that these temps are ten to fifteen degrees below normal for this time of the year. 

Many weekend events were either canceled or postponed due to the weather. The Valley of the Sun wasn’t ready for the cold temperatures and all the rain we got over the weekend.

If you have been following the news you know that the northern part of Arizona got lots of the white fluffy stuff.  Mush of the west was affected by this large storm and now it is moving east and the Thanksgiving holiday travel will be derailed by this large storm system.

 Was this past weekend the first time you tried your furnace or heating system?  Did everything work as expected?  Did you get any strange smells?

Now is the time to get your heating system tune-up.  Don’t waste money on a furnace that isn’t running at peak efficiency.  Worse yet is a system that isn’t operating safely.

Yes, over the next few days the daytime highs will move back to the very low seventies. Our over- night lows will still be in the forties. I don’t know about you but that is too cold to be without heat.
