Happy Independence Day to the Borderland, it is the 250th Anniversary of America. This weekend is expected to be hot with slight chances of isolated showers and thunderstorms. Today, El Paso rose to a high of 103 and Las Cruces rose to 100 for your Independence Day.
Weekend Forecast
Our best thunderstorm chances will be in the Sacramento Mountains with maybe a rogue isolated storm right along the El Paso and Hudspeth County line this evening. These storms may push out some outflow winds to El Paso and Las Cruces later this evening. Tomorrow will be similar in the Borderland, highs in the 90s/100s with slight chances for isolated showers and thunderstorms. Likewise, thunderstorms will be more scattered in the mountains starting Monday persisting through much of the work week.
