Albuquerque, NM – New Mexico is preparing for a significant shift in weather patterns as storm coverage begins to diminish today, with more noticeable decreases expected Sunday and Monday. As storm activity decreases, temperatures are set to rise, with triple-digit heat predicted for many areas next week.
According to the US National Weather Service in Albuquerque, the downward trend in storm coverage will result in fewer storms early in the week, leading to higher temperatures across the state. By Tuesday and Wednesday, many regions, including Albuquerque, Santa Fe, and Farmington, are expected to experience temperatures soaring into the high 90s and beyond.
The Weather Forecast Office highlights that Monday will see a moderate to major heat impact, intensifying further on Tuesday and Wednesday. This heatwave poses a significant risk, especially in areas that will reach triple digits. The increased temperatures combined with a lack of precipitation will elevate the heat risk, urging residents to take necessary precautions.
