Strong wildfires in southern New Mexico, causing death, structure damage, and evacuations, may receive relief from incoming cooler weather and potential rain.
Cooler weather and potential rain could help firefighters battling fierce wildfires in southern New Mexico, which have caused one death, damage to hundreds of structures, and forced thousands to evacuate. Strong winds pushed one of the two wildfires into the mountain village of Ruidoso, forcing residents to flee. Weather patterns are expected to change by Wednesday with moisture from a tropical wave in the Gulf of Mexico, possibly bringing some relief to the firefighters.
