El Paso is starting Saturday with clear skies and a sharp autumn chill, but the cold snap will not stick around for long. Temperatures will climb from 46 degrees this morning to about 64 degrees this afternoon under sunny skies.

Breezy Saturday Gives Way To A Warmer Weekend

The National Weather Service forecast calls for east winds of 10 to 15 mph, though the breeze should ease later tonight. Saturday night will be partly cloudy with a low near 48, and no rain is expected.

Sunday brings a noticeable rebound, with sunshine and a high near 72. The warming trend follows Friday’s gusty conditions, which included blowing dust concerns across the region, according to an earlier Hoodline forecast.

80-Degree Heat Returns Next Week

El Paso should reach about 79 degrees Monday, 84 Tuesday and 85 Wednesday. The first half of the week looks mostly sunny, but a slight chance of showers and thunderstorms arrives Monday night and increases through Wednesday night and Thursday, according to the National Weather Service.

Thursday carries a 40% chance of rain, with another 50% chance Thursday night. No watches, warnings or advisories are currently listed for the El Paso area.
