Albuquerque Weather


Since returning from a week in St. Louis for a week, I am reminded of how spoiled I am by the weather in Albuquerque since we moved here almost two years ago. When we got off the plane in St. Louis we were struck in the face with a huge blast of a foreign substance that I think some people call "humidity". Yuck. I don't miss it. It was 100 degrees and probably 90% humidity. Immediately sweating ensued it wasn't long before you felt like you needed towel off.

Returning to Albuquerque, I was reminded of the greatness of the weather in ABQ:

1. No humidity
2. No mosquitoes
3. 300 sunny days a year
4. A huge and beautiful view of the sky at all times (It's why they call it Big Sky Country)
5. Yet still the blessings of the seasonal variance

All this to say, if you have not visited Albuquerque you should consider it. Since we moved here I have been calling it the nation's best kept secret.
