El Paso is waking up near 67 degrees Saturday, September 19, under partly sunny skies, and the city is headed for a warm 93-degree afternoon. Winds will stay light, with only a small rain chance today, giving residents a quieter weekend window after a wetter stretch. The break is brief: the forecast turns markedly stormier starting Tuesday.
Saturday night should be partly cloudy with a low near 67, followed by a sunny Sunday reaching 93. Monday was forecast to reach about 93 degrees and remain mostly dry initially. The National Weather Service has no watches, warnings or advisories posted for the El Paso forecast area.
Warm Weekend, Then A Sharp Midweek Turn
Monday night looks mostly dry before Tuesday turns wetter and cooler, with a high near 86. Tuesday night brings an 80% chance of showers and thunderstorms, while Wednesday would bring continued rainy and cooler weather.
The wetter pattern may linger later in the week, with widespread showers and thunderstorms possible. The National Weather Service says the increased moisture could support heavy rain and localized flash flooding, with burn scars, mountain canyons and other flood-sensitive areas especially vulnerable.
Outdoor Plans Get A Better Window This Weekend
For Saturday through Monday, the forecast favors dry conditions and light winds, though afternoon heat will still be noticeable. That gives outdoor plans a relatively easy window before the storm pattern arrives Tuesday; the updated outlook adds sharper timing and stronger rain chances than Friday's Hoodline forecast.
