Our First Alert continues in the Borderland. Strong southwesterly wind gusts have kicking up dust across the area since the noon hours. El Paso International has seen a peak gust of 61 miles per hour, Las Cruces has seen a gust of 58 mph.
The El Paso angle: Local impact is the whole point here. If this is your neighborhood, your block, or your commute, your read on it is the one that matters.

This is exactly the kind of conversation I come here for. Real local takes.
