Drier weather moves into New Mexico
A few lingering showers and storms are continuing to move through southern and western New Mexico this morning. Shower and storm chances will intensify once again as we head through this afternoon and evening.
Drier weather begins to move into the state this weekend. We will still see another active afternoon of storms on Saturday, but drier air will begin moving into western and northwestern New Mexico, while the northeastern part of the state has a better chance for rain. These storms will again taper off Saturday night, with another crop of afternoon storms on Sunday. However, Sunday will be significantly drier, with only a few storms in southwest New Mexico.
Storm chances remain low and isolated into early next week, but a few afternoon storms will still develop, especially in western New Mexico and across some mountain peaks of the central mountain chain. Temperatures will also be heating up next week, with highs in the 90s and triple-digits by Tuesday afternoon. A more traditional monsoon pattern will also start to set up by the middle of next week, bringing higher chances of afternoon storms. Widespread 90s and triple-digit heat is also expected next Wednesday and Thursday.

Rail Yards Market showcases New Mexico’s indigenous culture
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) – The Rail Yards Market celebrated the state’s rich indigenous culture and history over the weekend through artistry, food, and craftsmanship. Some of the many attractions included a variety of southwestern jewelry pieces, handmade leather goods, as well as contemporary beadwork and artwork showcasing centuries-old traditions.
The Ry-Dale Largo Dance Group also performed traditional Navajo dancing styles. “I think it’s really important for everybody to get out and mingle and sit next to each other and create art. It really forms a sense of community, and it’s nice to just sit and create with people next to you that just really enjoy doing art,” said Lisa Richards, beading instructor.
Organizers say the Rail Yards Market sits on Tiwa land, emphasizing their pride in uplifting indigenous voices through their vendors and partners.
