KEY MESSAGES
Issued at 1129 PM CDT Tue Sep 1 2026
- Hot temperatures will continue this week into the weekend.
- A few short-lived storms are possible Wednesday and Thursday near the TX/NM state line, but most locations remain dry.
SHORT TERM
(Tonight through Thursday) Issued at 1024 PM CDT Tue Sep 1 2026
Thunderstorms that developed across eastern New Mexico earlier this evening have since weakened to light rain showers as that cross the state line into the FA. These showers should dissipate by midnight as they have been outrun by their own gust front. The rest of the night will be warm and quiet with lows only in the upper 60s on the Caprock and mid 70s across the Rolling Plains. Upper heights will increase slightly Wednesday despite Tropical Storm Edouard moving into east-central Texas. This will increase highs slightly to the upper 90s on the Caprock and in the low 100s off the Caprock. Monsoonal storms are expected once again across central and eastern New Mexico by Wednesday afternoon. Some of these storms could make it into our northwest zones by the early afternoon before dissipating, and a mention of a slight chance of thunderstorms will be kept in the forecast. Wednesday night will be similar to tonight with lows only slightly warmer, averaging in the 70s across most of the FA.
LONG TERM
(Thursday night through next Tuesday) Issued at 1024 PM CDT Tue Sep 1 2026
Hot temps will continue through the rest of the forecast with highs averaging in the 90s on the Caprock and just over 100 across the Rolling Plains. A few monsoonal storms may make their way across the Texas/New Mexico state line during the evening hours through Friday, but chances are low. Rain chances look even lower by the weekend as the upper high currently over the southeastern CONUS retrogrades and settles over the South Plains. This will keep conditions mostly dry and continue our hot spell.
