Storms Brewing in Southeast NM

A powerful cold front barrels into eastern New Mexico, bringing 55-mph wind gusts and cooler temps into the 50s and 60s, especially in Clovis and Portales late Wednesday night through Thursday. The front continues westward, sparking isolated thunderstorms in central mountains by Thursday afternoon. Flash flood risk near Ruidoso remains low due to scattered, mild storms. By Thursday evening, southeast New Mexico—Roswell, Carlsbad, Hobbs—faces the most unstable air, with frequent lightning, gusty winds, hail, and heavy rain possible in pockets. Expect a wild ride with blustery winds, cooling temps, and scattered storms building toward the southeast. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
