Severe Weather Heads East Through New Mexico

Severe weather is barreling into northeast New Mexico starting Friday night, with large hail, 60+ mph winds, and heavy rain targeting Raton, Clayton, and Tucumcari—then pushing east toward the Texas border. Storms will mostly clear by midnight, but stray cells may linger into Saturday morning. Saturday brings scattered afternoon storms with quarter-sized hail and damaging winds, especially near Ruidoso, Roswell, and Clovis—where burn scars and high terrain could trigger flash flooding. Sunday’s the real stormer: a cold front brings moisture and instability, fueling widespread strong to severe storms across Las Vegas, Raton, and Roswell—with Ruidoso again at high risk for flash floods.
