Winter storm rapidly approaching New Mexico

A powerful winter storm is set to impact New Mexico starting on Tuesday, bringing cold temperatures and snowfall to much of the state. After a period of calm weather, conditions are expected to become more unsettled with strong winds, chilly temperatures, and the possibility of snow showers throughout the week. An Arctic cold front will move into eastern New Mexico on Tuesday, causing temperatures to drop significantly and snow to develop in the area. By Wednesday and Thursday, the colder air will spread westward, leading to temperatures 15 to 25 degrees below normal for this time of year. Light snow showers are expected to continue through Thursday, with temperatures gradually starting to warm up by the weekend. Residents are advised to stay updated on weather forecasts and to take necessary precautions for the upcoming winter storm.
