The state is bracing for strong winds and potential fire danger as a series of storms moves through New Mexico. The first storm is bringing spotty rain, sprinkles, and light mountain snow to areas along and north of I-40, with wind gusts as high as 65 mph in eastern New Mexico. Another stronger storm on Monday will bring gusts up to 60 mph and increase the fire danger, with dry conditions and high winds creating a rapid spread in case of a wildfire. Despite some moisture, the storm will mainly affect northern New Mexico with light rain and snow. Blowing dust may also cause reduced visibility and poor air quality on Monday and Tuesday. A cold front will bring cooler temperatures in the middle of the week, with potential for more moisture from another storm later in the week.
