Wintry travel across the northern mountains of New Mexico through midnight. Several inches of heavy, wet late season snow will accumulate, mainly above 10,000 feet in the northern mountains, and especially over the Sangre de Cristo Mountains where 6 to 12 inches are forecast.
Widespread rain will favor eastern New Mexico this morning, as two upper level disturbances approach while a moist front arrives from the east. Rainfall amounts of at least half an inch are very likely across eastern New Mexico with more spotty showers and thunderstorms in western New Mexico this afternoon. Temperatures will be much cooler than normal.
Temperatures will warm on Saturday, especially in eastern New Mexico, but readings will still be below normal by 5 to 15 degrees. Showers and thunderstorms will develop over the high terrain with small areas receiving light to only briefly moderate rain.
