NEW MEXICO (KRQE) – Record high temperatures were present across large parts of New Mexico today, along with breezy to gusty winds. A cold front has started to move into eastern New Mexico tonight. This will bring breezy winds and slightly cooler temperatures behind it for Sunday. A few record high temperatures are still possible across the western half of the state, though. Temperatures return to the warming trend again early next week, with more record high temperatures likelyon Monday and Tuesday.
A storm system will start to move into western New Mexico by Christmas Eve. It is expected to bring a couple of spotty showers and mountain snow into southwest Colorado. More spotty showers will move into western and northern New Mexico on Christmas Day. Temperatures however are going to stay unseasonably warm across the entire state, with record high temperatures possible on Christmas Day for much of the state.
Southeastern New Mexico will see some snow while other places will generally see cooler, more winter-like temperatures. See the latest conditions at KOB.com/Weather.
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Some notable cities in New Mexico could see multiple inches of snow, along with possible wind and cooler temperatures Sunday into Monday.
There is going to be snow across the southeast. A winter storm advisory is in effect all throughout areas like Ruidoso and out toward the Texas state line. A winter storm warning for Carlsbad and even a blizzard warning for the Guadalupe Mountains. These advisories and warnings indicate it’s going to continue until Monday at 6 p.m.
How much snow might there be? Ruidoso could see a few inches, along with other higher-elevation areas. Carlsbad might even see as much as two inches and Roswell has a very good chance of snow.
Wind gusts ranged from 23 mph for Hobbs and Clovis, 25 in Santa Rosa and similar readings in other places. Temperatures could hit sub-freezing temperatures in places like Ruidoso, Roswell, Carlsbad and Hobbs. Meanwhile, Gallup and Grants could get into the single-digits.
