Moisture is steadily increasing across the Four Corners region this week, with daily afternoon thunderstorms expected—especially in the mountains and nearby valleys. These storms may bring gusty winds, lightning, small hail, and brief downpours. Highs remain above average today, but more clouds should ease the heat slightly.
Moisture peaks Thursday with a chance for more widespread rain, and temps cool as we head into the holiday weekend. Expect unsettled weather and plan outdoor activities accordingly.
