ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) Albuquerque experienced its third warmest October on record last month. The National Weather Service tells the Albuquerque Journal that the metro area ended October at 4 degrees above average and tied for the third warmest October since record-keeping began more than a century ago.
Albuquerque only had four cooler-than-average days all month, and three days Oct. 25 through 27 were 10 degrees above average. Eight of the 10 months so far in 2014 have been warmer than average.
A weekend storm added snow in the northern mountains, but after the brief cold snap, the area is expected to see warm weather return, with sunny and dry weather in the forecast for the next two weeks.
