Look Before You Lock!

Moderate to major heat risk is expected for most areas today and Tuesday. A Heat Advisory is in effect Monday for Espanola, the Albuquerque Metro , Edgewood, and much of eastern NM. Those without adequate cooling or hydration will be susceptible to heat illness.

Showers and thunderstorms are expected both Monday and Tuesday. Abundant moisture and slow storm motions will allow for locally heavy rainfall. A few locations will receive between 0.5 and 1.5 inches today, with more locations receiving these amounts on Tuesday. Watch for flooding of road intersections, low lying areas and normally dry arroyos.

Several locations are expected to break high temperature records today including Clayton, Las Vegas, Los Alamos, Moriarty, Raton, Santa Fe and Tucumcari. Triple digit heat is expected for much of the Rio Grande Valley and eastern NM.

Never, never, never leave children, disabled or elderly adults, or pets in parked, unattended vehicles! Studies have shown that the temperature inside a parked vehicle can rapidly rise to dangerous levels for people and pets. Leaving the windows slightly open does not significantly decrease the heating rate. The effects can be more severe on children because their bodies have not developed the ability to efficiently regulate internal temperature.
