A scorching heatwave is gripping the region, with temps hitting record highs like 105°F in Tucumcari and Albuquerque flirting with historic levels in the upper 90s. Fueled by a stubborn monsoon high pressure system, this intense heat isn’t going anywhere—expect 5-10°F above average through next week. While drier air may reduce storms in the south and east, mountains and the west could still see showers. Don’t let weekend cool-downs fool you: scattered storms linger, and extreme heat remains the dominant story. Stay hydrated and stay alert—this is no passing trend.
