Severe thunderstorm watch issued for El Paso, New Mexico
A severe thunderstorm watch is in effect for El Paso and much of New Mexico. The watch is in effect until 9 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 23, as storms could produce wind gusts of up to 70 mph, large hail, and frequent lightning. Heavy rain is also expected, with the chance for flash flooding. The threat of flash flooding is particularly concerning as soils across the region remain saturated from heavy rainfall in late September , the National Weather Service said. The watch also covers several communities across New Mexico, including Albuquerque, Santa Fe, Las Cruces, Alamogordo, Ruidoso, Roswell, Silver City and Farmington. A severe thunderstorm watch means conditions are favorable for severe thunderstorms to develop. Residents should monitor weather updates and be prepared to seek shelter if a warning is issued.
