Let the rains begin! Measurable rain across the Twin Tiers through Memorial Day
ELMIRA, N.Y. (WETM) – There was a chance that we would have a dry Memorial Day, but I kept the possibility there for good reason. Our chances of a completely dry holiday are not looking as good as they did a few days ago.
A slow moving upper level low keeps us rainy and will carry with it lots of cloud cover – which in turn leads to well-below average temperatures for the next seven days because of the lack of sunlight. The rain will start to wane early next week, and it looks like we will get a break in the cooler temperatures too.
Clouds move in overnight, and then around sunrise, the Southern Tier will start to get the heavy rain. The NAM, GFS, and Euro models all bring in several chances for multiple rounds of heavier rain showers Wednesday and tomorrow night.
One unfortunate change to the forecast is the rain is scheduled for Memorial Day. I tried to keep it out, but that is not going to be the case. There is at least a small chance of rain on the unofficial start of Summer, and those chances stay around through Tuesday as we are on our way back to work and school.

Isolated storms return to eastern New Mexico Friday with hotter weather
Severe storms moved through eastern New Mexico Thursday afternoon. Another round of isolated storms will develop Friday with hotter and mostly dry weather this weekend. A couple tornadoes touched down in Roosevelt County this afternoon, but thankfully there were no reports of damage. Those storms have been out of New Mexico for a while, but a few storms have redeveloped tonight around Clovis. These storms will also move out of New Mexico soon. Drier weather will continue to move into New Mexico into this weekend. Storm chances will still be possible Friday afternoon in far eastern New Mexico. That includes another threat of severe weather. Temperatures will continue a warming trend across the state Friday. On Saturday, only a spotty shower or two is likely in northeast New Mexico, but on Sunday, more isolated storms are possible in northern and eastern New Mexico. Temperatures will again continue to warm up through the weekend, with Sunday being the hottest day for most. More moisture will move into eastern New Mexico Monday, bringing a better chance for showers and thunderstorms up to the northern mountains as well. Outflow from those storms will push moisture as far west as the Continental Divide Tuesday morning. This will bring a more widespread chance for storms Tuesday afternoon. Rain chances move back into eastern parts of the state Wednesday. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.
