PRIDE, BUT NOW THE STORMS ARE ROLLING IN. OLGA. YEAH, IT’S GOTTEN VERY WINDY. WE’VE SEEN SOME HEAVY DOWNPOURS IN SOME AREAS. EVEN THAT CELL THAT MOVED THROUGH A PORTION OF SANDOVAL AND BERNALILLO COUNTIES. THE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WARNING HAS EXPIRED AS OF 515, BUT THESE SCATTERED KIND OF ACTION IS DEFINITELY GOING TO BE ON TARGET FOR US AS WE MOVE THROUGH THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS. YOU CAN EXPECT SOME BRIEF HEAVY DOWNPOURS AND SOME GUSTY WINDS AS THEY ROLL THROUGH. NO OFFICIAL SEVERE WEATHER WATCHES ACROSS THE STATE. ALL OF THAT YELLOW SHADED AREA IS IN TEXAS, JUST TOWARD THE EAST OF CLAYTON. BUT WE WILL CONTINUE TO SEE SOME POPS FROM NOW AND THEN. RIGHT NOW WE HAVE A FEW AREAS THAT ARE BACK DOWN INTO THE 70S, 77 RIGHT NOW FOR LAS VEGAS, WHERE WE SAW SOME RAIN. WE HAD RAIN A LITTLE BIT EARLIER THIS EVENING IN RUIDOSO. MOST OF US IN THE 80S. BUT TOMORROW, A DIFFERENT STORY. THE PLANNER FOR THE OVERNIGHT TONIGHT LOOKS LIKE IT’S GOING TO BE PRETTY DRY FOR US. YES, WE’LL SEE SOME CLOUD COVER TILL ABOUT SUNSET, BUT WINDS SHOULD BE AT OR BELOW TEN MILES PER HOUR UNTIL ALMOST MIDNIGHT TONIGHT. THAT’S WHEN THINGS ARE GOING TO BE CHANGING. WE’RE EXPECTING SOME GUSTY WINDS TO MAKE THEIR WAY THROUGH TOMORROW MORNING WITH THOSE EAST CANYON WINDS. FOR THE REMAINDER OF TONIGHT, WE’LL KEEP OUR EYE ON THE NORTH AND THE EAST. THAT’S WHERE WE COULD SEE SOME OF THESE HEAVIER THUNDERSTORMS ROLL THROUGH. AGAIN. EVERYTHING SHOULD SETTLE DOWN BY THE TIME WE GET TO MIDNIGHT TONIGHT. RAIN WISE, RIGHT NOW. BROKEN CLOUD COVER OVER SILVER CITY, WHERE IT IS A TOASTY 94 DEGREES. BUT CHECK OUT THE 24 MILE PER HOUR WIND GUST RECORDED OVER THE LAST HOUR. WE ARE HEADED FOR SOME GUSTY WINDS HERE IN THE ALBUQUERQUE METRO. WE’VE SET 10 P.M. TO 5 A.M. AS OUR WINDOW FOR THAT ACTIVE WEATHER, SO THAT’S WHEN WE’LL OFFICIALLY BE AT OUR IMPACT WEATHER MODE. HOWEVER, THE PEAK OF SOME OF THIS GUSTY WINDS WILL PROBABLY GOING TO BE HAPPENING WHILE YOU SLEEP ABOUT 2:00, 3:00 IN THE MORNING. THERE WILL BE REDUCED VISIBILITY AND POOR AIR QUALITY DUE TO THE BLOWING DUST, AND WE WILL DEFINITELY SEE SOME DIFFICULT TRAVEL ON NORTH SOUTH ROADS FOR THE SHORT TERM, THOUGH NOT TOO BAD FOR US. THROUGH THE END OF THE EVENING. THAT BACK DOOR COLD FRONT WORKS ITS WAY OUT AND THAT’S REALLY WHAT’S GOING TO QUIET US DOWN OVERNIGHT INTO TOMORROW MORNING WE WILL SEE A MIX OF SUN AND CLOUDS. TO START OFF ON YOUR SUNDAY FORECAST, SPOTTY SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE LATE DAY, MAINLY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FAVORING THE EASTERN HALF OF THE STATE. AND YEP, IT’S DEFINITELY GOING TO BE A LOT COOLER TEMPERATURE WISE BY TOMORROW FOR OUR DAYTIME HIGHS, WE’RE GOING TO TOP OUT JUST SLIGHTLY BELOW AVERAGE ACROSS THE ALBUQUERQUE METRO. THE SUNSHINE WILL MAKE A COMEBACK EVENTUALLY FOR THE FOUR CORNERS REGION, BUT WE’LL SEE BROKEN CLOUDS ON SUNDAY. PRETTY NICE FORECAST MONDAY, TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY WITH SOME SOLID 90 PLUS DEGREE TEMPERATURES. AND SO FAR, THE RAIN WON’T BE TOO PROBLEMATIC TOMORROW, BUT A SPOT, SHOWERS AND OPPORTUNITY FOR YOU IN SILVER CITY. AS WE BACK DOWN INTO THE 80S FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS WHERE WE MIGHT SEE SOME IMPACT STORMS TOMORROW, ESPECIALLY THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND THE EVENING, THAT WILL BE THE SOUTH AND THE EAST. SO GET SET AROUND ROSWELL, CARLSBAD AND HOBBS AND DEFINITELY HOLDING THOSE TEMPS BACK FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS BEFORE WE RETURN TO THE TO THE TRIPLE DIGITS. IT’S ALSO GOING TO BE AN ACTIVE WEATHER DAY TOMORROW FOR LAS VEGAS, RATON AND RED RIVER. THIS COULD BE PROBLEMATIC IN AND AROUND SOME OF THE BURN SCAR AREAS. GUSTY WINDS, FREQUENT LIGHTNING, AND ALSO SOME LOWER TEMPS FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. BUT WE’LL ALSO SEE SOME NIGHTTIME RAIN, A POSSIBILITY AS WELL. SANTA FE IS A MIXED BAG FOR TOMORROW. WE START OUT DRY WITH THOSE GUSTY MORNING CANYON WINDS, BUT THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING COULD FEATURE THOSE SHOWERS AND STORMS. SUNDAY IS NOT A WASHOUT, BUT IF YOU WANT TO HEAD TOWARD THE. THE POOL TIME WILL DEFINITELY WANT TO PLAN FOR T
Impact canyon winds early Sunday, then severe storms possible at night
A backdoor cold front will increase storm chances, with slightly cooler temperatures.
Our weekend starts with a few passing morning clouds and generally mild temperatures in the 60s. Get set for lots of heat through midday as highs across the Albuquerque metro soar into the middle 90s; upper 80s for Santa Fe. Lots of outdoor activities today from Albuquerque Pride to the ABQ Dragway, so remember to stay hydrated and take breaks in the shade. Don’t be surprised if an afternoon shower or storm develops. Chances for rain showers remain slight. Tonight it will be mostly cloudy with a light northwest breeze. Sunday is an Impact Weather Day for gusty morning canyon winds. Another backdoor cold front arrives from the northeast early Sunday morning, bringing greater storm chances and slightly cooler temps.
