Periods of rain and very high terrain snow will continue today with additional precipitation amounts favoring the northern and western high terrain. Another 0.25" to 0.50" will be common in the high terrain with 0.50" to 1.0" on west-facing slopes in the northern mountains.
Windy conditions are expected areawide today, especially over eastern NM. Gusts may be as high as 50-55 mph. Hazardous crosswinds are likely and reduced visibility in blowing dust is possible. There is still an elevated risk of rapid fire spread over eastern NM even with higher humidity and greater cloud cover.
Locations near and above 9,000 feet will likely see winter driving conditions through this evening. Some mountain passes may become slick. Most of the significant snowfall will remain above population centers.
A Fire Weather Watch is in effect for Thursday for a majority of eastern NM. Do your part to limit the chances of new fire starts. #OneLessSpark
