Heat Wave Brewing with Storm Threat | Albuquerque News

Heat waves are brewing across the region as temperatures soar well above average, with some areas hitting record-breaking highs near 100 degrees — especially in eastern New Mexico and the Pecos River Valley. While northern mountains stay cooler in the 60s, valleys and central zones face dangerous heat under clear skies fueled by sinking air. Isolated thunderstorms may pop up in mountains and the Rio Grande Valley, bringing heavy rain, hail, and lightning — a preview of heavier monsoon storms later this week that should bring relief. Winds shift from northwest to southeast, with lingering moisture and clouds up north. Stay alert: extreme heat is here to stay until the weekend.
