As rainy, stormy weather is likely, a flood watch is in effect for areas most at-risk. See the latest conditions at KOB.com/Weather.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — New Mexico is stuck in the middle of an area of high pressure in Oklahoma and Kansas and a low-pressure ridge in the northern Rockies.

What that is doing is flowing moisture into our state. It’s cooling temperatures down to the 80s, which are forecast for many of us throughout this week.

For Monday, we’ll likely see mostly cloudy skies. You could see some breaks in the clouds in between the scattered, slow-moving showers and storms.
