NEW MEXICO (KRQE) – Somewhat-humid air is present across New Mexico with little to no rainfall. East-gap winds are picking up from eastern areas into parts of the Rio Grande Valley, while the very patchy fog is developing in the northern valley floors to far-eastern parts of the region.
Around-freezing temperatures are confined to the Northern Mountain peaks to the far-northern valley floors, while elsewhere is mostly starting off in the 40s to the 60s.
Lower pressure aloft from the west is moving closer into the Land of Enchantment, and in combination with a drop in the jet stream meeting up with the low-level moisture from the east, more precipitation is ahead. Many areas in the mountains will receive rainfall with wet snowfall in the higher-mountain peaks in Northern New Mexico to Colorado, while thunderstorms will form in parts of the lower elevations.

Some sunshine before any precipitation will allow afternoon temperatures to reach on either side of normal. High temperatures will mostly range the upper 60s and lower 80s, except for northern highly-elevated areas through the Northeast Highlands which may not get out of the 50s, while far-southern to southwestern areas will be in the low 90s.
Some low-level moisture has arrived at the surface from the east as the pendulum swing pattern of somewhat-muggy mornings out east with breezy easterly winds shifting to southwesterly drier winds in the afternoons forming storms to the east will still continue. The fall system will linger around with some moisture, cooler air, and gustier winds from the west ahead.
