Another round of snow will arrive today and persist through this evening. A few inches of accumulation are expected across many areas near and south of I-40 as well as near Raton Pass. Given the cold temperatures, light snow will cause slick and icy roadways quickly. Blowing snow will result in poor visibility as well.
Gusty northeast winds will enter the region through the northeast corner of the state. Blowing dust may reduce visibilities and create hazardous driving conditions this evening. Some gusts may also impact gap wind areas farther south such as Socorro and Carrizozo.
Wind chill temperatures in the teens and single digits both above and below zero will be common tonight into Friday morning. Bundle up!
