Brandon Richards: Stormy stretch of weather starts Wednesday
Monsoon is making its grand return to New Mexico, which may not be so grand if you're in a community currently under a flood watch Wednesday. See the latest conditions at KOB.com/Weather.
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Many of us were off to a quiet and warm start Wednesday but conditions will get more unstable as the day goes on.
Scattered storms are popping up, moving north to south across New Mexico. Northeastern New Mexico may see strong-to-severe storms. Some of these storms may contain locally heavy downpours, which is why a flood watch is in effect. That includes Ruidoso.
For the next few days, in the Albuquerque metro especially, we’ll see at least a 40-60% chance of storms throughout the day. If you have a swamp cooler, it’s going to be trying times with that elevated humidity.
Meteorologist Brandon Richards shares all the details in his full forecast in the video above.
