The day started off clear but by the afternoon clouds developed over the state. The AQI forecast for today predicted moderate (yellow) air quality over most of Dona Ana and Unhealthy for sensitive groups (orange) over El Paso county.
The Albuquerque radar showed virga over central NM and the path of the Las Conchas wildfire smoke plume. Below is a snapshot at 7 pm from GOES. An image loop of GOES imagery showing the Las Conchas plume has been posted to
YouTube. And a view from a
webcam north of Santa Fe shows the plume in detail today.
