Another round of storms develop in New Mexico Tuesday afternoon
Storms are moving out of eastern New Mexico tonight, but another chance for storms returns Tuesday afternoon. Hottest weather so far this year moves in by the weekend.
It's been a very active day across parts of New Mexico Monday with showers and storms developing dropping heavy rain and large hail and causing strong winds. These storms are moving out of the state tonight, but a couple strong to severe storms may redevelop in far southeast New Mexico over the next couple of hours. This is where a Severe Thunderstorm Watch continues until 1 AM.
Another round of showers and storms will develop in similar areas Tuesday afternoon, but with more storms in southern and southeastern New Mexico. Southeastern parts of the state will also likely see severe weather in the afternoon and evening with large hail, damaging wind gusts, and heavy rainfall possible. There is a high risk of burn scar flash flooding in the Ruidoso area tomorrow afternoon as well. Storms will move out of the state late Tuesday night.
A few isolated storms will develop again in the mountains and eastern New Mexico Wednesday afternoon, but it will be much quieter than today or Tuesday. This is as drier air is moving into New Mexico again. Rain chances will continue to dwindle into this weekend, with just a few very spotty rain showers popping up in eastern New Mexico. Our first taste of the monsoon high pressure will set up over New Mexico this weekend. This is a sign our weather pattern is shifting towards the monsoon. However, the high pressure won't bring much in terms of rain, but it will bring our hottest weather so far this year. A stretch of triple-digit heat will begin Friday in southern parts of New Mexico. The Albuquerque Metro may even hit 100° by Sunday.

Thunderstorms bringing rain, hail and winds up to 60 mph may be headed to Boise
Grab your umbrellas, Boise! Weather experts are forecasting wind, rain and hail this week. Les Colin, a Boise-based National Weather Service meteorologist, said there is a 20 to 30% chance of a thunderstorm hitting the Boise area Tuesday evening, with a nearly 60% chance of a larger storm hitting Wednesday. 'It looks like there are going to be thunderstorms that are going to form first in southeast Oregon, and the outflow from those storms could go all the way over to here,' Colin told the Idaho Statesman by phone on Tuesday morning. Colin expects the first storm to hit sometime after 5 p.m. Tuesday evening and last through 11 p.m. The Tuesday storm would most likely be dry, bringing high winds and blowing dust up to 60 mph, but no rain, according to the meteorologist. The National Weather Service predicts the Wednesday storm to be more significant, with rain, gusty winds and hail. Colin predicted that second storm would begin after 2 p.m. and last through sunset. Colin said if the thunderstorm's path moves in such a way as to directly hit Boise, it could bring up to half an inch of rain. However, Colin said a direct hit is unlikely, and Boise is expected to see measurements closer to 0.1 to 0.2 inches of rain. Experts at the National Weather Service are weighing whether to issue a flash flood warning for Wednesday. The biggest areas of concern are places where recent wildfires left a burn scar. National Weather Service meteorologist Spencer Tangen said the burn scars left by the Wapiti Fire near Grandjean and Stanley are of particular concern. He warned people planning to camp or drive near those areas to be aware of the risks from debris flow. Hot wildfires can cause soil to become hydrophobic, meaning the soil can't absorb water anymore, Tangen explained. 'Basically, water just kind of runs off the soil and will wash out a thin layer of dirt that's developed on top of that burned hydrophobic layer,' Tangen said by phone. 'That makes it so that you can get debris flows and flash flooding much easier, because the ground can't absorb the water.' The National Weather Service said a trough — an elongated area of relatively low atmospheric pressure — coming in off the Pacific Ocean is causing this stormy weather to begin forming in Oregon. After Wednesday, it's sunny skies and above-average temperatures ahead for the Treasure Valley. 'The rest of the week, it should be dry and pretty hot, actually,' Colin said. 'It will continue to be about 5 to 10 degrees hotter than normal, which would put it close to 90 degrees for highs, similar to what you would expect in the first week or so of July.'
