A powerful storm system is set to bring dangerous winds to much of New Mexico on Tuesday. A high wind warning is in effect throughout the state, with gusts expected to reach over 60 miles per hour. Blowing dust, wind damage, and power outages are all significant concerns due to the bone-dry conditions in the area. The storm will also bring snow and rain showers to higher elevations, with a winter weather advisory for snow and blowing snow above 8000 feet in the southwestern mountains of Colorado. The winds are expected to be strongest on Tuesday, with moderate winds returning on Thursday and Saturday. The metro area will experience very strong winds, potentially damaging, with a high fire threat and low visibility from blowing dust. Residents are advised to limit their time outside and take precautions against the extreme wind conditions. The storm system is expected to pass by the weekend, with improving conditions and moderate winds returning.
