Moisture-driven storms persist as heat intensifies in New Mexico

New Mexico is experiencing a mix of heat and storms, with the eastern part of the state facing isolated storms and the west experiencing dry and hot conditions. Temperatures are expected to reach triple digits, potentially breaking records. The entire state will see a return of triple-digit temperatures, with Albuquerque and Farmington possibly hitting 100 degrees for the first time this year. A backdoor front will bring increased moisture and the potential for more widespread storms, including the possibility of flash flooding. A monsoon-like weather pattern may develop later in the week.
