El Paso Gets a Taste of Fall as Cold Front Moves Through

Ok, who upset Mother Nature?! Because these winds are no joke! El Paso is getting a little taste of fall with cooler temperatures, wind and just a touch of chaos to kick off the weekend!

A cold front pushed through the Borderland overnight Thursday, making for a much colder and windier Friday. The gloomy skies and chilly breeze are a big change from the warmer temperatures we’ve been enjoying, making today the perfect excuse to grab a blanket, stay cozy and warm up with a big bowl of caldo or your favorite soup.

The good news? The wind won’t stick around forever! The bad news: more rain is expected for next week.
