Storms Then Heat: Weather Alert

Storms Then Heat: Weather Alert

Author: The Daily News Now! June 8, 2026 Duration: 1:39

Clear skies and dry air start the day, but scattered thunderstorms roll in by afternoon—mostly mild, with warming temps and breezy winds eastward. Northern areas stay cool in the 30s-50s, while southern zones hit 50s to low 70s. The real scorcher? Eastern New Mexico and Pecos Valley, where temps soar into the upper 80s to 100 degrees. Southwest winds mixing with moisture bring quick storms with possible hail, lightning, and gusts—and fire danger spikes, especially near Four Corners. Storms fade overnight as humid air settles, but tomorrow brings more storms in the Rio Grande Valley before a brutal heatwave takes over, potentially shattering records, with isolated storms sneaking back in later.
