Soak Up the Sun in Phoenix

Anyone who has ever visited Phoenix, Arizona, during the summer knows exactly why the city’s metro region is called the “Valley of the Sun.” Clocking in at a historical high of 122 degrees Fahrenheit in June 1990, Phoenix heat is often the kind that can melt the soles off your sneakers if you’re not careful.

However, fall and winter are another story, with temperatures ranging from the mid-70s to the low 50s in November and December. The sun is still shining—that’s the best part—but the dry heat limits itself to much more manageable temperatures, making it the perfect weather to visit and enjoy Phoenix, its sister city Scottsdale, and the surrounding desert landscape.
