For the first time this winter a couple of locations in Southeastern New Mexico fell below zero last night. This includes the Tatum MesoNet Station with a low of -1ºF, and two Personal Weather Stations (PWS) southeast of Roswell in the Midway area with lows of -1ºF. A Personal Weather Station in North Roswell reported a low temperature this morning of -4.5ºF or -5ºF. 

Snow cover played a big role in this. It allowed the heat (relatively speaking) from the surface to radiate faster into the atmosphere than those locations without any snow on the ground. Notice how snow bands left some areas free of ground cover yesterday in the photos above. The public reported 2" to 5" of snowfall in Roswell. A CoCoRaHS report of 4.2" was reported 1.4 ESE of Lincoln, 4.0" was reported 4.3 WSW of Capitan, 1.2" was reported 0.4 ESE of Cloudcroft. Artesia received around .5", and Queen reported .5", and I recorded .1" here in Carlsbad.
