Animal Humane New Mexico holds first DogiCon adoption event
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) — Animal Humane New Mexico held its first-ever DogiCon-themed adoption event Sunday at its main campus.
The event featured 15 local vendors, food trucks, a Mario Kart tournament, and a doggie cosplay costume contest. The event was free to attend, and some guests went home with a new pet. “We certainly see the community coming out and very interested in bringing home a forever friend or even a new sidekick,” Associate Director of Marketing Madison Beets said.
Grant’s Monday Night Forecast
Monsoon storms will return to parts of New Mexico every day this week, while hotter temperatures move in later in the week.
Thunderstorms developed across the mountains of New Mexico Monday afternoon. These storms slowly drifted south into the evening. Almost all of these showers and storms have ended now tonight. Another round of afternoon thunderstorms is expected Tuesday, developing first over the mountains before spreading into nearby valleys and lower elevations again. However, some storms around the Four Corners will be on the drier side, increasing the threat for lightning caused wildfires with little rainfall.
The monsoon high that has been bringing thunderstorms early this week will shift well west of New Mexico on Wednesday. This will bring hotter and slightly drier weather across the state. Even so, afternoon thunderstorms will still develop, especially over the mountains and across northeast New Mexico. Drier air will limit storm coverage Thursday and Friday across central, northern, and western New Mexico, while southern and eastern parts of the state continue to see the best chance for afternoon storms. Hotter weather will also return later this week, with triple-digit heat expanding to more locations, including the Albuquerque metro area Thursday and Friday.
The heat will continue into the weekend as the monsoon high strengthens and shifts back toward Utah and Colorado. That pattern will also bring higher monsoon moisture into New Mexico, bringing increasing chances for afternoon and evening thunderstorms statewide Saturday and Sunday.
ROSWELL, N.M. (KRQE) — Organizers behind the annual Roswell UFO Festival say this past weekend’s event was a success. It was held from July 2 to July 4.
The festival was filled with unique booths, shops, shows and contests for paranormal enthusiasts. Roswell Mainstreet says they believe more than 12,000 people were in attendance, although those are preliminary numbers.
