Gusty west winds and light snow showers are expected to impact eastern New Mexico on Monday evening, creating potentially hazardous driving conditions, especially in the northern mountains and northeast highlands. The National Weather Service warns of slick roads and reduced visibility in affected areas.
Wind gusts could reach up to 45 mph in some regions from Monday evening through Tuesday morning, with snow accumulation expected primarily in higher elevations. Travelers on I-25 and U.S. Route 64 should exercise caution, particularly overnight when temperatures are expected to drop and roads may freeze.
A cold front is forecast to bring colder air to the region by mid-week, with daytime highs falling into the 40s and overnight lows plunging into the teens and 20s. Residents are urged to secure outdoor items, protect pipes from freezing, and stay informed with the latest weather updates.
