ABC-7 First Alert: Muddy, muggy, Monday

EL PASO, Texas (KVIA) – We start the work week with an ABC-7 Initial Warning for poor air quality.

An air quality warning is in effect from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. The reason for this is smoke that is once again entering the region as a result of ongoing forest fires.

We’re also looking at the heat as we get going this week. We’re looking at triples across the region. El Paso is trying to get to 103, with 99 in Las Cruces.

The chance of rain remains today, with a 20% chance of rain until Monday evening.
