Low pressure systems to raise rain chances in New Mexico

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Here comes the two “love birds” – the low-pressure systems that could spark off showers and snow showers across the western U.S.

This has given us a cloudier and warmer start to Wednesday for most of New Mexico. In fact, the western half of the state woke up to temps 10-20 degrees above their climatological normal.

Showers are possible for some this afternoon and evening. The highest rain chances are across the Four Corners. Snow is possible but this will be limited to high elevations in the mountains of southwestern and south-central Colorado. This potential will begin around noon and increase through the day.

Rainfall amounts will be on the lower end, roughly 0.01-0.1″ – with locally higher totals up to a quarter of an inch. Albuquerque has a low chance – 10% chance at most – of a stray shower moving through the metro, any time after 5 p.m.

If rain moves in earlier in the afternoon, this will help keep the Four Corners a bit cooler but still above average. We’ll still see a temperature spread of the 50s-70s across New Mexico.

New Mexico spoils Nevada’s Senior Day as Lobos leave Reno with 63-56 win

The Nevada women’s basketball team dropped its final home contest of the 2025-26 season on Saturday with New Mexico spoiling Senior Day and pushing past the Wolf Pack for a 63-56 win.

The Wolf Pack led 36-34 at halftime behind a hot-shooting start. Skylar Durley, Imbie Jones and Ahrray Young each had six points as Nevada shot 14-of-25 from the field (56%). But things cooled off in the second half, with the Lobos outscoring the Wolf Pack 19-13 in the third quarter to take a four-point lead into the fourth. Nevada’s shooting woes only worsened in the final period when it made just three field goals, including none in the final four minutes.

Durley led Nevada with 16 points and six rebounds. Young finished with 10 points, three rebounds and three assists. The Wolf Pack made just one three-pointer out of its nine attempts.

The loss drops Nevada to 9-20 overall, 5-14 within the Mountain West Conference. The Wolf Pack now heads to Utah State for Tuesday’s regular-season finale before opening the Mountain West Tournament play next Saturday in Las Vegas.
