El Paso hit a record high Friday with 108 degrees. The old record was 104. It is now the hottest temperature of the year so far.

Temps will heat up again with highs in the triples. We should stay just shy of any brutal highs with potential records. I expect temperatures to be anywhere from 100-104.

Temps have soared today to well above normal. It will continue to be hot this week with temps hanging in the triples.

Storms that developed last night and overnight caused gusty winds which allowed a lot of dust and sand to be dispersed across the Borderland.

Storms are beginning to develop in our northern counties and then will drift to the south. There could be some storms later tonight with gusty winds around some of these storms.

Showers and storms will develop in spots again tonight with some locally heavy rain possible along with gusty winds.

Temperatures will continue to heat up the next few days with triples returning to the area. No record highs are expected. There will be a slight chance for storms later in the day.

Triple digit temperatures hit the area again today but no record highs. Temps will slowly cool the rest of the week as a some added moisture will be on the increase.

Another day of below triple digit temperatures with partly cloudy skies. A slight chance for a storm is possible very late tonight and into the overnight hours.

Temps continue to be below 100 degrees. We are still above average with our triple digit temperatures for the month of August with 8 - the average over the last 30 years is 6.
