Almanac

Storms continuing over SE New Mexico, quickly moving to the NE 25-35 mph. These storms will continue to producing occasional to frequent lightning, with brief moderate to heavy rains, and pea size hail. A few light showers have popped up over the east-central plains from Las Vegas down into Lincoln county as well.

A cold front will enter northeast New Mexico, cooling temperatures a few more degrees. Storms will continue to impact eastern New Mexico while dry conditions prevail in the western half of the state.

Widespread freezing conditions are expected across northwest NM tonight. Areas such as Grants, Gallup and Farmington will see a few hours of sub-freezing conditons.

A backdoor front will cause scattered storms overnight across the eastern plains, with breezy to windy gap winds reaching the ABQ metro by early Tuesday morning. Overnight lows will remain near the freezing mark across the west and high elevations of the northern mountains.

An upper low will develop over the AZ/CA border, drawing increased moisture further west. The increased moisture, combined with a diverging air flow aloft will increase the coverage of storms across the state Wednesday afternoon.
