Spot Forecast for Paradise...GILA NATIONAL FOREST
National Weather Service El Paso Tx/Santa Teresa NM
341 PM MDT Sun Jun 1 2025

Forecast is based on forecast start time of 0700 MDT on June 02.
If conditions become unrepresentative, contact the National Weather
Service.

.DISCUSSION...
On and off showers with occasional thunder will continue for much
of the night, becoming more widespread after sunrise. Another
break from showers and thunderstorms is expected late morning into
early afternoon before scattered showers and thunderstorms are
expected to redevelop. Gusty winds along with lightning will be
the concern around any showers. This pattern makes the high
temperature and minimum RH forecast a little uncertain as it will
depend on the frequency of showers and subsequent cloud coverage.
Outside of showers, expect generally light winds favoring the
southwest with smoke transport to the north and then the
northeast.
