ABC-7 StormTrack Weather: Above-normal temperatures and dry conditions continue
EL PASO, Texas (KVIA) -- A warming trend is set to bring above-normal temperatures to the Borderland through most of next week, with near-record highs expected on Monday.
Dry conditions will persist into early January, with occasional breezy afternoons. Gusts of 30-40 mph are possible Monday evening, particularly along the east slopes of the mountains.
The region will see clearing skies and rising temperatures today and Sunday as a ridge of high pressure builds over the Desert Southwest.
By Monday, high temperatures will peak near record levels as the ridge flattens, influenced by a series of troughs sweeping across the central Rockies.
