Albuquerque Heatwave Hits Hard | Santa Fe News

Albuquerque’s sweltering heatwave—seven straight days over 100 degrees—is turning deadly, with ERs flooded with heatstroke victims and stranded desert rescues. July tied as the fifth hottest on record, and last year shattered all records; the city’s high elevation makes it feel even more brutal. Cars are overheating too, with mechanics warning that interior temps can soar dangerously high—especially for kids and pets left inside. Don’t delay AC repairs: simple fixes like rolling down windows or splashing water help temporarily, but get those systems fixed fast. Stay hydrated—even before you’re thirsty—and watch out for yourself and your vehicle as more 100-degree days loom.
