WHAT'S HAPPENED WITH THE MONSOON SEASON? AFTER GETTING OFF TO A GOOD START IN JULY, THE TAP HAS BEEN TURNED OFF FOR THE MOST PART IN AUGUST … WITH ALBUQUERQUE GETTING ONLY A QUARTER OF AN INCH OF RAIN THROUGH THE 18TH OF THE MONTH. NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE METEOROLOGIST DEIRDRE KANN TELLS 770 KKOB THIS ISN'T OUT OF THE ORDINARY. SHE SAYS THERE ARE BOTH BURSTS AND BREAKS DURING ANY MONSOON SEASON. AUGUST IS A "BREAK" MONTH.
BUT KANN SAYS THE GOOD NEWS IS THE MONSOON SEASON IN NEW MEXICO WILL LIKELY LAST FOR ANOTHER MONTH OR SO.
