Are you ready for some rain to wash off all the dust from today? We’ll get that rain on Wednesday. As expected, it was a gusty, dusty day today with a peak gust of 55 mph in Las Cruces, 47 mph in El Paso. Weather Watch Janet Walters sent this beautiful picture of a rainbow. Could we see a rainbow tomorrow? Probably not because we shall be cloudy all day, and you need sunshine behind you to see a rainbow.
