As these storms move into northeast New Mexico by the evening, they will likely turn strong to severe, bringing a threat of large hail and damaging wind gusts. A couple more isolated storms will be possible as far south as Sacramento Mountain and Roswell. Elsewhere it will be another mostly sunny and warm day.
