Potentially strong storms, flooding overnight in El Paso area– Your 9-Day Forecast

I issued the Weather Authority Alert yesterday for Tuesday due to the potential for strong storms and intense rainfall. That certainly happened tonight with several streets and arroyos flooded with water. A Flash Flood Warning is posted until 10:15 PM for west and central El Paso. Cars have stalled in the flood waters on Mesa Street. In addition, a Flood Advisory is posted until 11 PM for central and northeast El Paso, including Fort Bliss. Do not drive into flooded roadways. I am a lot less nervous about Wednesday. After the t-showers tonight, Wednesday will be a very different day. Here's your exclusive 9-Hour Forecast with you 9-Day Forecast below: TONIGHT: KTSM has issued a Weather Authority Alert due to the potential for strong t-showers and intense rainfall out of some storms overnight tonight. The skies will be partly cloudy, but due to the high instability and moisture levels, storms will develop that could be stronger this evening. Heavy rainfall is possible out of individual storms. Do not drive into flooded roadways. Storm chances last well into the night/early morning. The east winds will range from 5-20 mph with stronger gusts near storms. The low will drop to 72. FORECAST: Wednesday will be partly cloudy with only a slight chance of isolated area storms in the evening. Rain chances go way down for Wednesday, and the high will be 96. Thursday will be partly cloudy and 97 with isolated late day t-storms. Friday will be partly cloudy and 96 with widely scattered showers and t-showers. Some storms may produce brief, heavy rainfall. Saturday will be partly to mostly cloudy and 92 with scattered showers and t-showers. Moisture levels will be high for the weekend, so both Saturday and Sunday could bring storms with brief, heavy rainfall. Sunday will be partly to mostly cloudy with scattered showers and t-showers. Sunday's high: 91. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.
