National Weather Service El Paso TX/Santa Teresa NM
605 AM MDT Tue Jun 4 2024

...HEAT ADVISORY IN EFFECT FROM 9 AM WEDNESDAY TO 9 PM MDT
THURSDAY...

.DISCUSSION...
We will see less winds today, but still occasionally breezy and we
will still have very low min RH`s. The heat starts to increase for
Wednesday through Friday with high temperatures near or even a
little above 105 in the lowlands. There will be a slight increase
in moisture with min RH`s on Thursday and Friday, near 10% in the
lowlands and ranging from 15 to 30% in area mountains. There will
be just enough moisture to give us some rain chances Thursday
through the weekend, but with the drier air near the surface, dry
lightning, especially in the Gila region will be a possibility.
Vent rates over the next couple of days will range from very good
to excellent.
