Wetter weather will develop across parts of New Mexico late this week. A strong east wind moves into Albuquerque Thursday night. It’s still another windy afternoon for parts of New Mexico, with the highest winds gusts along and north of I-40, but also breezier weather in the southern part of the state. Temperatures are slightly cooler today across the northern half of New Mexico as well. Overnight, winds will die down even as a backdoor cold front moves into the state from the east. This backdoor front will spill into the Rio Grande Valley Thursday morning, bring a breezy east wind into the Albuquerque Metro through the day Thursday. The backdoor front will also bring rain to northern and north-eastern parts of New Mexico Thursday afternoon through Thursday night.
