Today marks 2 months at KRQE! The Land of Enchantment has welcomed me into their homes and I’m truly grateful! What an amazing experience it has been so far, and I’m excited to see what else New Mexico has to offer! #NMwx

It's June 15th so that means its officially the start of the monsoon here in the desert southwest. Here's a look at how a lot of those monsoon storms form across New Mexico! #NMwx#monsoonseason
The Seven Cabins Fire burning in the Capitan Mountains in southern NM more than doubled in size overnight. The fire is now 6,361 acres and 0% contained. Evacuations are currently in place from State Highway 246 to the ridge top of the Capitan Mountains. #NMFire#NMwx
The fire threat continues Sunday for New Mexico. Strong winds, above average temperatures and low relative humidity will lead to critical and extreme concerns for parts of the state! #NMwx

A quickly growing wildfire has prompted evacuations for the community of Nara Visa, NM. The Line Fire is burning in northern Quay County and moving to the northeast. US 54 in Texas is also closed. #NMFire#NMwx
Woah!! A viewer captured this MASSIVE dust devil on the San Felipe Pueblo Thursday afternoon while driving on I-25! You will also see a weaker dust devil later in the video! #NMwx
A perfect set up for beneficial rain & mountain snow Thursday through Saturday! Over 1" of rain is likely across eastern NM with 30-48 hours of steady rainfall. Lower rainfall amounts going west. Upslope flow along the Sangre de Cristo Mtns could produce over 12" of snow! #NMwx
Liftoff.
The Artemis II mission launched from @NASAKennedy at 6:35pm ET (2235 UTC), propelling four astronauts on a journey around the Moon.
Artemis II will pave the way for future Moon landings, as well as the next giant leap — astronauts on Mars.
It's looking likely ABQ will see its earliest 90º on record by this Saturday. ABQ has never seen 90º+ in March OR April! Earliest is May 5.
ABQ will also break its all-time March record high of 85º on Thursday, then again Friday, and again Saturday.
Circles = records.
