El Paso is starting Tuesday with clear skies, calm winds and temperatures around 60 degrees. The city should warm quickly under bright sunshine, reaching the upper 70s by afternoon before another mild, mostly clear night.
Sunny Stretch Holds Through Wednesday
Tuesday’s high is expected to reach about 79 degrees, with light south-to-southwest winds near 5 mph and virtually no chance of rain. The National Weather Service forecast discussion calls for a brief run of drier weather, with Wednesday reaching about 77 degrees.
Tuesday night will stay mostly clear with a low near 59, while Wednesday night will be partly cloudy with a low around 58. Early humidity should ease during the afternoon as temperatures rise and winds pick up slightly.
Rain And Thunderstorms Return Thursday
The weather pattern shifts Thursday, when a 50% chance of showers and thunderstorms arrives from around midday into the afternoon. Storm chances increase Thursday night to about 60%, with mostly cloudy skies and a low near 59.
A few storms could bring heavy rain and localized flooding, especially east of U.S. 54, where repeated showers may add up quickly. Forecasters do not expect severe storms from this system, but residents near low-water crossings, mountain canyons and creeks should stay alert during downpours.
Halloween Looks Mostly Sunny Before A Wetter Sunday
Friday turns mostly sunny and cooler near 74 degrees, although another chance of showers and thunderstorms arrives Friday night. Saturday’s Halloween forecast calls for seasonal temperatures, higher clouds and generally light winds, with a chance of a shower.
Sunday brings more clouds and rain chances. Monday looks partly sunny, with rain chances lingering; no watches or warnings are currently posted for the El Paso area.
