The skies over El Paso present just a few clouds today, accompanied by a chill that the National Weather Service (NWS) in El Paso has quantified at 37°F. Amidst such climes, the humidity sits at an unburdening 41%, with the wind calmly brushing southeast at 5 miles per hour.
According to the National Weather Service, today's outlook is set to steadily climb to a more amiable 65°F, with the same east-southeastern wind continuing only lightly to stir at 5 to 7 mph. These are the small blessings that residents might find themselves grateful for, between struggles with scarcer resources and the intensity of political discourse that has characterized the early months of this year. Tonight, the stars are to barely contend with clouds, the low dipping near 38°F with an eastern breeze at a slight 3 to 5 mph.
As Monday arrives, El Pasoans can expect to bask in the continuation of sunshine, with the high increasing a notch to nearly 67°F. The daytime wind will transform, starting east at 7 to 10 mph but deciding to soon switch to a southerly direction in the afternoon. The following night parts ways with total clarity for partly cloudy skies and a low hovering around 40°F, with a southsouthwest wind making a gentle appearance at 5 to 8 mph, before growing light and variable.
And for those looking a bit further ahead, Tuesday promises mostly sunny skies, the temperature cresting at approximately 64°F. It's a day for the northeast wind, which will gently come in at 5 to 9 mph but then chooses to turn to a south-southwest bearing later in the afternoon. As night falls, the clarity is to persist, only barely disrupted by a minor chill with lows settling once more around 38°F, this time, with a north-northwest wind of 7 to 9 mph, pivoting west come evening.
Midweek, El Paso is to look forward to uninterrupted sunny skies, albeit cooler with a high near 57°F and west winds picking up at 7 to 13 mph, and gusting as high as 20 mph. On Wednesday night, there's a slight 20 percent chance of showers after 11 pm, with the skies mostly clearing and the temperature dropping to a low of around 36°F, as reported by the NWS. The latter part of the week hints at more showers with a 30 percent chance on Thursday, though the sun still asserts itself in the midst of this, with temperatures hovering near 52°F in the day and falling to 33°F at night.
El Paso is in for quite a consistent pattern, it seems, for the weekend promises more of the same, sunny with a high near 59°F on Friday, mostly clear by night with a low around 38°F, and more sunny skies to grace the daytime on Saturday with highs ascending again to near 65°F.
