The National Weather Service had fun with today’s forecast:
As the NM State Fair commences on Thursday, the state will be roasting like those jumbo turkey legs and frying like fried green chile cheeseburgers…
It’s not nearly as bad up here in the mountains, thank goodness. We’ll skip the fair.

expect you’ll not miss too much, and saving yourself from severe sunburn, a bonus 🙂
It’s a hundred miles away, another reason not to go. 🙂
It looks like a stoner wrote this article!
The writing style is uncharacteristic of the National weather Service. 🙂
Loved the NM State Fair … not so much the heat.
I may have to fix myself one of those green chile burgers soon!
I went once, when I had a conference in Albuquerque and was down there anyway. I enjoyed it, but I wouldn’t have gone otherwise.
I do miss the awful State Fair food but the fair itself, even our County Fair, has just gotten to big for my old legs.

I used to go to the Minnesota State Fair and rent a handicapped cart to get me around without exhaustion. I had certain healthful food I bought and 2 treats that don’t come close to healthful. But, mostly I looked at handicraft exhibits and watched various performances. I never went to the Midway and seldom to the animal barns. And I brought old-fashioned sunburn treatment supplies with me because my hat never kept my nose from burning. All of that was before Covid hit, of course.
Yes, Covid has changed a lot of things. 🙁
I have never been to a state fair, and we are only 35 miles from Florida one but i don’t like crowds. Certainly not drive 100 miles. I prefer you humanless mountain top for sure, and also the cooler air
Especially the cooler air!
That sounds way too hot to be walking around at a fair.
It would be for me!
