July 2025 was a bit warmer than average, with rainfall above average on the northside of the valley and below average on the southside. The average temperature was 68.9 degrees, about a degree above average, mainly due to some hot temperatures during the second week of the month.
Precipitation totaled 2.49 inches at my northside location, nearly 3/4 of an inch above average. A couple of localized rain storms moved through the northern parts of the valley during the month, but completely missed the southern areas. Most spots from the town of Taos south into the Ranchos area only received an inch of rain or less for the month. Highest amounts occurred along the northern foothills where amounts ranged from 2.50 to 3.00 inches.
The month started off cooler and moist for the first few days, with highs of 80 to 85 and light daily rain amounts. It gradually warmed up into the second week as highs rose into the mid to upper 80s. The warmest period of the month occurred from the 8th to the 16th as highs were mainly in the upper 80s to low 90s. However, as a moist monsoon pattern set up from the 17th to the 24th, temperatures cooled into the upper 70s to mid 80s. The last week of the month saw highs climb back into the mid 80s to near 90 with a few showers the last few days of the month.
The warmest high was 93 degrees on the 9th and 10th, while the coldest high was 76 degrees on the 24th. The coldest low was 47 degrees on the 2nd, while the warmest low was 59 degrees on the 12th.
Overall wind speeds for the month were a little below average, and there were only a few days that were windy, mainly on the 11th and 12th. Most afternoons saw some gusty winds however, as there were 10 days with gusts of 35 mph or higher, with the highest gust of 57 mph occurring during a thunderstorm on the 14th.
