Good morning, Albuquerque.

In Santa Rosa, crews worked to contain a fire that damaged the west end of Route 66 Inn, though the hotel stayed open for guests.

The New Mexico Fire Marshal’s Office began investigating the cause late Friday morning, and no one was injured.

This summer, a 535-mile road trip along historic Route 66 ended with 66 stops showcasing vintage motels, museums and unique eateries from border towns to Albuquerque.

Visitors can explore local history and attractions that capture the charm of the Mother Road.

Sneaker enthusiasts gathered Friday morning outside Kingswell Skate Shop in Nob Hill for the early release of Nike’s Hatch Chile SB Dunk Low, a limited edition sneaker inspired by New Mexico’s green chile.

The shoe features three shades of green and flame details and retailed for $130.

Albuquerque officials are keeping crews on standby as the Department of Municipal Development prepares for the final two months of monsoon season; teams will clear drains and respond to flooding while residents are advised to call 311 for road debris reports.

A June fire inside a glove box at Los Alamos was the fourth preventable incident since 2023, a federal safety board said.

Officials warned that missing fire-hazard reviews could slow future operations as the lab continues its work to meet production goals.
