More heat on Sunday
Sunny, hot and breezy with triple-digits possible south and east.
INCENTIVE ANYMORE TO LEARN THE BIGGER WORDS. I DO KNOW THE WEATHER WORDS, THOUGH. AND TODAY’S WEATHER WORD IS FANTASTIC. WE’VE SEEN SOME SHOWERS, SOME THUNDERSTORMS OUT EAST, BUT THINGS ARE STARTING TO QUIET DOWN NOW ON THE RADAR AS THAT SYSTEM MOVES ON OUT. WE COULD SEE A FEW SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS, MAINLY EAST AND NORTHEAST, OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS. BUT FOR MANY OF US, WE’RE GOING TO EVENTUALLY DRY OUT. RIGHT NOW, WE’RE STILL GETTING SOME OF THAT GULF MOISTURE. NOTICE HOW IT’S WRAPPING AROUND AND LOOPING INTO THE EASTERN HALF OF OUR STATE. AND THIS IS WHAT’S GOING TO KEEP SOME OF THAT HERE IN THE FORECAST, AT LEAST FOR THE NEXT FEW HOURS. I CAN TELL YOU THAT WE’RE GOING TO START TO CLEAR OUT AND DRY OUT THOUGH, BY THE SUNDAY FORECAST. BUT UNTIL WE GET THERE, OCCASIONAL WIND GUSTS WILL BE POSSIBLE, ESPECIALLY WHERE THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE MOVING THROUGH. WE HAVE 20 PLUS MILE PER HOUR WIND GUSTS RIGHT NOW FOR BOTH SANTA ROSA AND IN AND AROUND THE LAS VEGAS REGION. PUFFY CLOUDS OVER RIO RANCHO. THESE ARE FAIR WEATHER CLOUDS, SO NOT EXPECTING ANY RAIN FROM THEM. FARMINGTON TEMPERATURES SOARING INTO THE LOWER 90S. IT’S GOING TO BE A VERY HOT WEEKEND AS WELL AS WELL HERE IN THE ALBUQUERQUE METRO WHERE WE’RE SITTING IN THE LOWER 90S. OVERALL, I THINK YOU’RE GOING TO LIKE THE WAY THINGS SHAPE UP AS WE HEAD THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE EVENING. THE PLANNER IS DEFINITELY GOING TO KEEP IT QUIET, WIND WISE AT OR BELOW TEN MILE PER HOUR WINDS. WE WILL SEE THE TEMPERATURES COOL A TINY BIT AFTER SUNSET, BUT WE’RE STILL FEELING PRETTY GOOD IN THOSE UPPER 70S LOWER 80S UNTIL ABOUT MIDNIGHT TONIGHT. THE PLANNER WILL KEEP THE RAIN AROUND. I’D SAY TEN TO MIDNIGHT. WE’LL SEE SOME SHOWERS. SO IF YOU’RE HEADING OUT FOR YOUR SATURDAY NIGHT, KEEP THAT IN MIND. OFF TOWARD THE EAST. BUT BY TOMORROW MORNING, THIS IS OUR 7:00 VIEW. WE’RE LOOKING PRETTY GOOD. THAT TROUGH LINE IS MOVING WELL OUT OF THE STATE. WE’LL GET SOME CLEARING OVERNIGHT TONIGHT, WHICH WILL HELP THE TEMPERATURES BUMP DOWN A LITTLE BIT, BUT NOT TOO TERRIBLY COLD. TOMORROW FEATURES HIGH THIN CLOUDS. SO ALTHOUGH WE SEE SOME CLOUDS AROUND ABOUT NOON TIME ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN ENDS OF THE STATE, THESE WILL BE NON RAINMAKING CLOUDS. WE’RE GOING TO WARM IT UP TOMORROW. TEMPERATURES ARE GOING TO SOAR A FEW DEGREES WARMER THAN WHAT WE SAW TODAY. WE SHOULD MAKE IT INTO THOSE SOLID LOWER 90S FOR THE ALBUQUERQUE METRO. AND THEN WE WILL CONTINUE TO KEEP A PRETTY HOT FORECAST OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. TAKING A LOOK AT OUR EXTENDED FORECAST FOR THE FOUR CORNERS REGION, WHICH INCLUDES SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF COLORADO, MILD MORNING STARTS. EVERYONE IN THE 50S. EARLY ON SUNDAY MORNING SHOULD BE COMFORTABLE IF YOU’RE HEADING OUT TO SUNDAY SERVICES TEMPERATURES, THOUGH, PLAN ON IT STICKING TO THE LOWER 90S ALL WEEK LONG IN AND AROUND FARMINGTON. NOW WE WILL SEE POSSIBILITY OF PULLING IN SOME SPOTTY SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS IN THE SOUTHWEST, BUT THOSE CHANCES ARE VERY, VERY SLIGHT. NOT ONLY WILL SILVER CITY HANG OUT IN THE LOW 90S THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK, WE COULD SEE A LOT OF SUNSHINE BY FRIDAY AFTERNOON. FRIDAY EVENING, IT’S GOING TO BE ANOTHER QUIET STRETCH AS WELL FOR SOUTHERN AND EASTERN ZONES. THIS MEANS POTENTIALLY HIGH HEAT IN AND AROUND ROSWELL. WE’RE LOOKING AT LOW TRIPLE DIGITS FOR MOST OF THE WEEK AHEAD, AND EVEN ON TUESDAY, WE’RE STILL HOVERING NEAR THAT 100 DEGREE MARK. SO TAKE THOSE PRECAUTIONS THAT YOU KNOW ARE NECESSARY WHEN THE TEMPERATURES GET THIS HOT. LAS VEGAS, RATON AND RED RIVER FINALLY DRYING OUT. GO AHEAD WITH THOSE OUTDOOR PLANS FOR YOUR SUNDAY. IT WILL BE NICE ON MONDAY AND EVEN THE FIRST HALF OF TUESDAY BEFORE THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS RUMBLE ON THROUGH. SPOTTY SHOWERS. OUT OF THE QUESTION. NOW FOR OUR SANTA FE METRO TONIGHT. YES, A SPRINKLE OR SPRITZ IS POSSIBLE, BUT TOMORROW SHOULD BE JUST FANTASTIC. IF YOU’RE HEADING DOWN TO THE PLAZA FOR ALL OF THE FESTIVITIES. EARLY MORNING TEMPS FOR US HERE IN THE ALBUQUERQUE METRO STARTING OFF IN THE 60S, WHICH MEANS TOMORROW IS GOING TO BE A HOT ONE. LOW TO MID 90S FOR MOST OF THE WEEK. SLIGHT SHOWER CHANCE ON TUESDAY. VERY VERY SLIGHT. BU
More heat on Sunday
Sunny, hot and breezy with triple-digits possible south and east.
We will enjoy a great finish to the weekend. Any lingering morning clouds will move out quickly, so we are left with abundant sunshine and a lot of heat. Temperatures across the Albuquerque metro top out a few degrees higher on Sunday afternoon, settling into the lower 90s, middle 80s for Santa Fe. The sun rays will be intense with extreme UV values. That will significantly increase the chance of sunburn without protection. Remember to stay hydrated, take breaks, and seek shade to cool off. It will become breezy in the afternoon and evening. Sky conditions remain partly cloudy, and temperatures will stay mild overnight. Our next chance for rain arrives on Tuesday.
