Temps stay cooler, added clouds hang around

It was a beautiful day Thursday with the clouds and cooler temps—just a few light rain showers and sprinkles here and there.

Another nice day Friday with mostly cloudy skies and temps in the upper 80s and lower 90s. There will be a slight chance for some rain and isolated storms - about 20%. Temps will heat up for the weekend with highs in the upper 90s and low 100's and more sunshine.

Ruidoso:

Cloudy skies, rain chances and high humidity are a huge plus for helping with the fire situation. Rain is expected Friday and Saturday with the SE winds adding that moisture. The winds should not be a major issue over the weekend.
