Hot & Dry - Typical For Mid-June.
Monday (June 15th) marks the beginning of our annual Desert Southwest Monsoon season which ends September 30th. June is notoriously hot in SE NM and we usually see our highest daily summertime temperatures. Not always though. July and August can be just as hot with records highs in the Pecos Valley all above 110ºF.
This upcoming week looks hot and dry especially mid-week into next weekend. Daily high temperatures are forecast to climb above the century mark once again. Widespread wetting rains are not in our outlook although a few hit and miss thunderstorms will be possible over and near the mountains.
