Temperatures continue to heat up across New Mexico through Thursday. A surge of monsoon moisture will bring showers and storms across New Mexico starting Friday.
High pressure is making its way towards New Mexico Wednesday. The effects are already being felt with hotter temperatures and fewer showers and storms earlier today. Another round of isolated showers and storms will return Thursday afternoon as high pressure moves right over northern New Mexico. This will also bring the hottest weather of the week, with a few places reaching near-record high temperatures.
By Friday afternoon, a traditional monsoon pattern sets up as high pressure moves to the east of New Mexico drawing up a surge of monsoon moisture from the south. This will fuel scattered showers and thunderstorms Friday aftern
