Why Are My Weather Posts Missing From Facebook.

Hello everyone. I just wanted to let you know that my Facebook page was shut down without any warning by Facebook this past Saturday, June 8th. All I was told was that I had violated their community standards. I don't know what triggered that; they didn't tell me. I was told this may be permanent or for six months.
My guess is that it may be because I posted several comments and articles from my Substack page about the riots in LA, and that must have triggered/angered someone, and they complained, thus Facebook shut me down. I don't know this as fact, though. I have appealed this decision, and I'm still waiting for their reply. I have read on X that this has happened to other Facebook users posting about the LA riots as well.
I always share my weather blog posts (that I post here) on my Facebook page and my X page. This included over twelve different New Mexico and West Texas Facebook Community sites. So there are thousands of you out there (based on my views and shares of those posts) who will no longer see those posts. My Facebook page may or may not be restored.
This is another good reason (as the National Weather Service often reminds us) to have multiple ways of receiving severe weather alerts when severe weather threatens your location. My weather web page is one of those ways, and I really appreciate all of you who have and still do use it. Thank you so much!!!
If my Facebook page is restored, I will continue to share my weather blog posts and some of the NWS Watches and Warnings...as I have been doing for years now.

Record Heat - Red Flag Warning Today.

SE NM & W TX Today.



New Mexico Today & Tuesday.


Southern New Mexico Today & Tonight.


Hot, Dry & Windy Today.

A Red Flag Warning will be in effect for SE NM & W TX today. It will be in effect at noon and will continue until 9 PM MDT tonight. High temperatures today are forecast to range from around 94 in the Roswell area, to 95 in the Artesia and Hobbs areas, to 98 in Carlsbad. Some locations will either tie, or break their daily record highs for the date today. See the list below.

With near record to record high temps, relative humidity values dropping down into the single digits, and west to northwesterly winds at 20-35 mph along with gusts up to 40-45 mph, dangerous fire weather conditions will once again return to the area. Please refrain from any type of outdoor activity that involves the use of sparks or flame today.

A strong, but dry cold front will dive southward and into SE NM by around sunset. Gusty northerly winds will accompany the frontal passage. Gusts to be as high as 45 mph or possibly stronger in a few places. Localized areas of blowing dust may also develop in a few areas as the cold front sweeps southward late this afternoon and early this evening. This will be especially true near open farmland, fields, lots, construction sites, and other dust prone areas.

Cooler weather will overspread the area behind the front tomorrow and Wednesday. Highs will range from the upper 60's to near 70 tomorrow, and the mid-upper 70's on Wednesday. Overnight lows will be a little on the chilly side with the upper 30's to low 40's expected tomorrow morning as well as Wednesday morning. A few of the normally colder locations may be a few degrees colder.

Long-range models are continuing the current trend of keeping us dry, along with above normal temperatures through the next 10 - 14 days. And so the drought drags on with no relief in sight.
