Storm chances continue this week
Active weather will stick around this week with daily chances for showers and thunderstorms across parts of New Mexico. Strong to severe storms will be possible as well, especially in eastern parts of the state.
More rain and storms developed Monday afternoon in northern and eastern New Mexico. Some of these storms turned severe, bringing heavy rain, large and accumulating hail, along with lightning and even reports of tornadoes and funnel clouds. These storms have now moved out of New Mexico tonight and the threat of severe weather is over. Calmer weather will return overnight as moisture pushes west again into the Rio Grande Valley by Tuesday morning.
Moisture will continue to wash back and forth across eastern and central New Mexico this week. Westerly afternoon winds will push the moisture back into eastern parts of the state by the afternoon. That will keep the best chances for rain and thunderstorms this week in eastern New Mexico along with most mountain ranges. Wednesday will bring a threat of strong to severe storms in eastern New Mexico again. The biggest threats will be large hail and damaging wind gusts, but an isolated tornado cannot be ruled out.
Isolated storm chances will continue into the end of the week as temperatures heat up. Well-above average warmth will move in for the weekend, with the Albuquerque Metro climbing into the 90s. Storm chances will likely increase again Sunday and Monday next week.
