Hot temperatures are expected Friday afternoon and early evening. Eddy County, as well as the Guadalupe and Delaware Mountains, will be particularly hot, with temperatures as hot as 107 degrees, especially in the Pecos River Valley.
Above normal temperatures continue for the next several days, though highs cool a bit Saturday. Other than a few isolated to widely scattered storms today, much of the forecast looks dry overall.
Multiple days of 100+ degree heat means a greater chance of heat stress and heat illness this week. Be aware of the signs of heat stress, limit time spent outdoors (especially during the hottest part of the day), and stay hydrated!
