Smoke and Storms on the Horizon | Santa Fe News

Smoke from the Sacaton Fire is drifting northeast, causing haze over southwest and central New Mexico Friday night—though visibility won’t be severely impacted. A second fire near Sedona may send smoke into northwest New Mexico overnight. Isolated thunderstorms could bring wind, lightning, and light rain over the Sacramento and Capitan Mountains Friday evening. The holiday weekend starts hot and dry, but scattered showers and gusty winds may pop up, with thunderstorms building east of the Sacramento Mountains. By Sunday, humidity rises as a weather system from Kansas brings more showers and storms to northeast New Mexico, possibly lingering into Saturday night—marking the start of a more active monsoon season.
