Yesterday's weather was absoutley beautiful. Too bad Old Man Winter is going to destroy the tranquility of that with another visit today into Wednesday.

Two upper level storms will impact the state and area today into Wednesday. The first one, the weaker storm, will impact mainly western and northern New Mexico today. The second short wave trough of low pressure is forecast to briefly close off over eastern Arizona and Western New Mexico by Wednesday.

As always just who gets the heaviest snows from this storm will be determined by the exact track of the center of the low. In order for southeastern New Mexico and nearby areas to get in on the action the low needs to dig a little further to the south.

A mixed bag of wintry precipitation is forecast for the southeastern plains today into Wednesday. Areas of light rain, light freezing rain, light freezing drizzle, sleet, snow, and freezing fog are expected to develop today into Wednesday. For now it appears our best shot at seeing measurable snowfall will come Tuesday afternoon into Wednesday afternoon. Current forecasts indicate that an inch or two of accumulation will be possible. 

Our highs today will occur early this morning with falling or steady temperatures this afternoon. Most of us will remain in the 30's today with some northern locations falling into the 20's. Wind chill values will be in the single digits and teens north to the teens and twenties south.
