Albuquerque, NM – Rising summer heat will bake central New Mexico through Tuesday, with daytime highs steadily climbing into the upper 90s across Albuquerque.
According to the National Weather Service in Albuquerque, Friday begins a stretch of sunny, dry days with minimal wind and daytime highs starting at 93°F. The warmest day will be Sunday, June 30, with a forecast high of 96°F and barely a breeze to ease the heat. Lows will remain mild, hovering in the mid-60s overnight, offering little nighttime relief.
The persistent sun and climbing temperatures are expected to increase heat exposure risks, especially for those working outdoors or traveling along Interstate 40 and I-25 corridors. Officials advise staying hydrated, limiting outdoor activity during peak afternoon hours, and checking in on elderly neighbors or pets.
Saturday looks to continue the trend, with sunny skies and a high near 95°F. No rain is expected until at least Monday afternoon, when a 30% chance of scattered thunderstorms may develop — but these will be highly localized and unlikely to cool things down meaningfully.
Although winds remain light, the heat will continue to intensify through early next week. This marks one of Albuquerque’s hottest stretches of the season so far.
⚠️ Next update: Sunday morning, when the NWS will assess incoming monsoon moisture and possible storm development for early next week.
