October 2017 produced near to above normal temperatures. Precipitation was below normal in the west, varied in central areas and above normal in the east. The start of October continued the way late September ended - wet! More heavy rain and flooding occurred on the 4th into the 6th (see table below for sample rain amounts). Dry and seasonable weather ensued on the 7th and 8th. A cool down on the 9th and 10th allowed for the first snowfall of the season over the northern mountains. Amounts were light though, including around 3 inches in Angel Fire. Another warm-up followed for the 11th through 14th with mostly dry conditions. A sharp change to cooler on the 15th was quickly followed by another warming trend with dry conditions on the 16th to 18th. A welcome rain event unfolded on the 19th with widespread showers and thunderstorms. Dry and mostly mild weather embraced New Mexico from the 20th through 25th, with one brief cool down on the 24th. A powerful cold front blasted into the state on the 26th, sending cold air south and west. A little snow fell on the Sangre de Cristo Mountains and northeast highlands. The end of the month was quiet aside from a weak disturbance on Halloween. But only spotty light rain and mountain snow fell.
