Yesterday's weather was interesting to say the least. Shallow ground fog covered the landscape in parts of southeastern New Mexico at sunrise. The first photo above was taken 21 miles west of Jal, NM in Lea County on Hwy 128. By 2:30 PM a strong Pacific cold front was blasting eastward across the area producing 50+ mph westerly wind guts and pockets of blowing dust. Photo #2 show this. Then by sunset it was raining with a rapidly falling temp.

Storm Drops Further South Than Forecast.
Our current winter storm was centered near Clovis early this morning and continues to pull slowly off to the northeast. It dropped a little further to the south than what the models had been forecasting but not far enough south to produce snow in the Pecos Valley.
Its looking a little more like winter out west this morning.
Snow was still falling over much of northeastern and eastern New Mexico as of 5 AM this morning as indicated by the blue shaded echoes. The darker the blue the heavier the snowfall.
