The New Mexico monsoon season is about to begin. While these storms are not tornadic (due to the lack of dynamics), they can be quite beautiful on their own. Photographed above was a weak storm over the Chama, NM valley. While I was not chasing, I thought it would still be nice to share here. I will be keeping my eye out for a short fall season this year. As noted in the blog last year, as the jetstream begins to work back south, New Mexico can occasionally produce a few tornado warned storms in the October timeframe. However, these would not be during the "monsoon season" specifically.
