New Mexico Heat and Storms This Week | Albuquerque News

New Mexico’s sweltering heat is turning up the dial with temps hitting 106-107 degrees in Chaves, Eddy, Dona Ana, and Otero County—until around 8 PM tonight. But don’t pack your sunscreen just yet: storms are brewing, especially in the northern mountains and west, with flash flood warnings issued near Hermits Peak and Calf Canyon burn scars, plus between Pinehill and Grants. The monsoon’s moisture will linger through the weekend, bringing scattered thunderstorms and heavy downpours that could trigger more flooding. By next week, drier air moves in, reducing storm chances in central and eastern NM, though the west and north may still see isolated showers. Albuquerque’s forecast? Mid-to-upper 90s, with a shot at 100+, breezy winds from storms, and plenty of “Land of Enchantment” drama. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
