Leaving the high heat of Albuquerque today did not bring any relief from the heat wave the state has been experiencing.

Currently, it is around 100° in Albuquerque and 95° in Jamestown, New Mexico. At least that's according to the National Weather Service. We're under a Heat Advisory. Thank goodness The Beast has air conditioning. The roof and dash air conditioners got a good workout this trip.

The rest of the week looks to be equally as warm with some slight chances of thunderstorms.
