Sandia Lab:
This link will get you current weather, not daily, not hourly, but by the MINUTE. Sandia has an on-line reporting station that should give current conditions near the So. Eubank/Tijeras Arroyo dump slope site--for those days when you want to go sloping with dead mattresses and other discards. Also provides general wind conditions good for most of southern ABQ. The site will even tell you the current solar irradiance so you can figure how much sunscreen to put on.
