Near Record Heat Scorches New Mexico

We are close to breaking a record for the longest-running heatwave in New Mexico. Depending on where you live in the state, there have been some dangerously hot conditions to keep an eye on. This week, Chris and Gabby host an expert from the National Weather Service to discuss the significance of this summer’s temperatures, and when people can expect some relief. 

Should people re-think swamp coolers for their homes next summer? Which areas are considered at 'high risk' for long heatwaves?
