New Mexico experienced light snowfall in various mountain ranges and light rain in some valleys, with colder temperatures and westerly winds making it feel even chillier. The upcoming wintry pattern change will bring stronger winds along with more precipitation. Despite the cold air, temperatures are slightly milder than the day before, but are expected to drop with the arrival of a cold front later in the week. The transition will bring gusty showers of precipitation, potentially sparking fires and causing blowing snow and dust. Temperatures are expected to range from the high 20s to 60s throughout the day, with snow developing overnight in the Northeast Highlands. Another blast of cold air is expected early next week, bringing the coldest temperatures of the season for some areas with life-threatening wind chills. Residents are advised to stay updated on the latest weather information on KRQE NEWS 13 for any potential hazards.
