Significant changes to our local weather appear to be in the making towards the middle into the end of this upcoming work week. A strong fall-like cold front is forecast to dive southward into SE NM & W TX around Wednesday or Thursday. Much cooler temperatures are forecast to overspread the area behind the front into Friday or Saturday. Highs will likely only be in the 70's.

A couple of shortwave troughs of low pressure are forecast to form over the Desert Southwest this upcoming week. These upper-level disturbances will help to destabilize the atmosphere, and import sub-tropical moisture in the the area, which will aide in the development of scattered to numerous t-storms over the state.

Unseasonable hot weather will dominate our local forecast today into Wednesday. High temps are forecast to range from 93-98 across the local area. Overnight low temps during this time frame will be close to seasonal norms with readings ranging from 60-65.
