Hot enough for ya? El Paso residents think so!

 

Four of the top five consecutive-day streaks have occurred since 2019.

Graph (highlights added) and headline:  El Paso Matters, 9/21/2026

Robert Moore reports:

Monday is the 108th consecutive day where El Paso’s high temperature reached 90 degrees or more, the longest such streak on record in the city. 

The forecast calls for the streak to end Tuesday, the first day of fall, with an expected high temperature of 88 degrees. Heavy rains are possible Tuesday and Wednesday, with a flood watch in effect for much of that time. 

The last day El Paso’s temperature didn’t reach at least 90 degrees was June 5. Fifty days in that stretch saw temperatures of 100 degrees or more. 

El Paso is on track to have its warmest year in history. [emphasis added]
