EL PASO, Texas – Soft dawn light spreads over the Franklin Mountains this Tuesday morning as another warm, dry stretch begins across the Borderland. Skies will stay clear, winds light, and temperatures steady through Thursday before a late-week shift hints at cooler, breezier days ahead.
According to the National Weather Service in El Paso, sunshine dominates through midweek with highs climbing into the low- to mid-80s. Winds stay calm, ranging from 5 to 10 mph, and humidity remains very low—a signature of desert fall stability. The next few days will be excellent for outdoor projects, road travel, and school events, with no rain in sight through Thursday.
By Friday, weak upper-level changes start to nudge cooler air toward far West Texas. Afternoon highs will dip slightly to around 78 degrees, and nighttime lows could slide into the low 50s across El Paso County. Though not yet a first fall cold snap, this trend marks the beginning of the season’s first subtle shift toward crisp mornings and mild afternoons.
Looking into the weekend, skies stay mostly sunny with light winds, though models suggest stronger northerly flow by late Sunday. That could introduce a brief round of cooler, drier air for early next week, possibly dropping temperatures further into the 70s. For now, residents can expect a classic desert fall—warm days, cool nights, and clear horizons from Las Cruces to downtown El Paso.
