Weather Authority Alert: Heavy rain threat overnight, Tuesday night
El Paso has already experience heavy rainfall today on the east part of the county. Las Cruces was under a flood advisory early today as well. More t-showers with the threat of heavy rainfall is likely tonight, overnight, and Tuesday afternoon and evening. A surge of tropical moisture combined with a very unstable atmosphere means that we should be on high alert for heavy rain with little warning through Tuesday night. Here's your exclusive 9-Hour Forecast for Tuesday:
TONIGHT: KTSM has issued a Weather Authority Alert due to the threat of very heavy rainfall out of individual t-showers and clusters of t-showers. A surge of tropical moisture has charged up the mid-level of the atmosphere. That means storms have the potential to unlock as much as 2 inches of rain in a matter of minutes. Do not drive into flooded roadways. T-Showers will come and go in periodic waves through the night. The SE winds will range from 5-15 mph with gusts near some storms, and the low will be 71.
FORECAST: Tuesday could start with heavy rain early in the morning. We'll see just enough midday sunshine between the clouds to warm us up to 90. With mostly cloudy skies, expect scattered PM t-showers with the threat of heavy rain out of individual storms. The SE winds will range from 5-15 mph. Wednesday will be very different. Skies will be partly cloudy, and we'll only have a slight chance of isolated area t-storms. Wednesday's high: 98. Thursday will be mostly sunny with a few clouds and a high of 101. Friday will be mostly sunny and 102. Saturday will be partly cloudy and 100 with isolated late day t-storms.
