PHOENIX (AP) — After a meltdown summer, Phoenix finally has a cooldown. The National Weather Service forecast the city to reach only 94 degrees Fahrenheit on Tuesday. That would end a streak of 113 consecutive days of at least 100 degrees. The last time Phoenix’s high was below 100 was on May 26. Since then, Phoenix has broken more than a dozen city heat records including 61 days of at least 110 degrees, and 39 mornings when the lows never dropped below 90. And it’s not over: Meteorologist Sean Benedict says the highs for Phoenix are projected to reach 102 on Sunday and 103 on Monday.
