El Paso is starting Monday near 60 degrees under mostly clear skies, with a mild afternoon ahead and only a small chance of storms after dark. The bigger story is the split-screen week: dry, warmer weather takes over Tuesday and Wednesday before rain chances return Thursday.
Monday Stays Mild, But Storms Linger East
Monday should turn partly sunny and reach about 74 degrees, with light south winds generally below 5 mph. A slight chance of showers and thunderstorms arrives Monday evening before midnight, with a low near 58.
The National Weather Service says most of El Paso should stay dry, while the stronger storm focus remains east of the city in Hudspeth and Otero counties. A few storms there could produce localized flooding, so drivers heading east after sunset should keep an eye on changing conditions, even though no watches or warnings are posted for El Paso County.
Two Quiet Days Before Rain Chances Return
Tuesday looks mostly sunny with a high around 78, followed by a mostly sunny Wednesday near 78. That gives the city a brief dry stretch after the weekend's unsettled weather, a shift from the setup described in a recent Hoodline forecast.
Thursday brings a chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon and evening. Rain chances continue Thursday night and into Friday, when another round of showers and storms could bring heavier downpours in parts of the region; Friday's high should be around 73.
Weekend Plans Look Mostly Favorable
Saturday and Sunday look dry, with highs near average. For outdoor plans, the simplest strategy is to enjoy Tuesday through Wednesday and keep a little flexibility for Thursday night and Friday.
