Texas — Dawn breaks crisp and clear over the Franklin Mountains, the desert air holding a cool edge at 44°F. It’s a calm, golden morning across El Paso, setting up what will likely be one of the region’s best stretches of November weather before Thanksgiving.
According to the National Weather Service in El Paso, skies will stay mostly sunny and dry through Tuesday, giving travelers along I-10 and Highway 54 a green light for safe, smooth travel. Saturday will warm to near 70°F under clearing skies, while Sunday follows close behind with a high in the mid-60s and light southwest winds. A few high clouds may drift across the desert sky Saturday night, but rain chances stay slim — just 20% — and brief if they occur.
By early next week, temperatures hold steady in the 60s to low 70s with cool mornings near the low 40s. Thanksgiving itself looks pleasant and bright, but models hint at a larger pattern shift after the holiday, as a major U.S. cold front begins moving south and east from the Rockies. That system could bring below-normal temperatures — and even heavy snow farther north — between November 25 and December 3.
Five-Day Outlook (El Paso, TX):
- Today: Mostly sunny, high 70°F.
- Sunday: Sunny, high 65°F.
- Monday: Sunny, high 63°F.
- Tuesday: Sunny, high 65°F.
- Wednesday: Sunny, high 64°F.
