Winter Returns Thursday Night Into Sunday!

Carlsbad, New Mexico.
Setting Sun In Dust Obscured Sky.

One can only hope that yesterday's high wind/blowing dust event was the last one this spring. Sorry, but I'm not getting my hopes up just yet. I sincerely hope I'm wrong on this because like most of you I'm sick and tired of these repeated dust storms we've endured since February. 

Get ready because a drastic change is coming Thursday into Sunday. Think colder with snow and rain!

Spring Storm Acts More Like A Winter Storm!

A strong closed mid-upper-level low is forecast to strengthen and sink southward to just south of Yuma, Arizona, by sunrise Thursday morning. It is then forecast to slide eastward, and by around noontime on Saturday, the ECMWF has it centered near Artesia in southeastern New Mexico. Current forecast models then have it moving east of the state Saturday night and Sunday.

This will be an unusually strong and cold winter-like storm given the time of the year. It will resemble more of a winter storm than a spring storm. Snow in April is not unheard of in New Mexico even at the lower elevations. 

Saturday looks to be some 30Āŗ to 40Āŗ below normal across the eastern one-half of the state with high temps mostly in the 30's and 40's. How far south the storm digs and how fast it moves eastward will play a role in how cold this weekend will be.

For now it appears that nearly the entire state will drop down to or below freezing Sunday morning. Snow cover will play a role in how cold it gets too. A killing freeze is possible. 

The 40,000' overview today is that a great deal of the state should (I use that word cautiously) receive widespread beneficial rain and snow from this developing strong winter storm. A few thunderstorms may also pop up here and there near the eastern border.

Forecast models this morning are still doing their tango dance trying to figure out how strong, cold, and where and how fast this storm will slide across the state. So naturally there remains a lot of uncertainty in the details yet. Who gets snow, how much, and where? How low will the snow levels drop and where? Who gets the heaviest rains and where? 

The GFS, Canadian, ICON, and the NAM-12 are also forecasting snowfall over most of the state except the far southern counties. They all have varying snowfall amounts and placements. 

The takeaway is that a potentially significant winter storm is going to impact the state to varying degrees Thursday night into Sunday. There may be travel issues due to heavy wet snowfall with the possibility of some road closures. This storm could cause some power outages and tree damage in some locations in areas where heavy wet snow falls.

Heavy snowfall storm totals as of this morning's model runs look to generally be in the six-inch to a-foot range...maybe more in some spots and less in others depending upon the storm track. If the models are right on this one some of our mountains could get clobbered with very heavy snow including the Sacramento and Capitan mountains.   

If the models are right then the eastern one-half of the state could get up to a half of an inch to an inch and a half of liquid precipitation from rain and snow. Which would make a lot of us happy given the amount of dirt we've inhaled/ingested this spring!  

As the storm deepens and draws closer, and the models refine their forecasts expect to see the possibility of Winter Storm Watches, Winter Storm Warnings, and or Winter Weather Advisories issued in the coming days by our local National Weather Service Offices. I'll post more on all of this over the next few days.

- Elevated risk of fire spread in eastern New Mexico today and
  again tomorrow due to very dry conditions and breezy southwest
  winds. Light rain and snow showers will favor western New
  Mexico both days, with minor accumulations in the high terrain.

- Increased chances for lower elevation rain/snow and potentially
  significant mountain snow Friday through the weekend. Minor to
  moderate travel impacts likely in northern and eastern areas.
  Confidence is high for widespread wetting precipitation.

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 223 AM MDT Wed Apr 2 2025

Today will be much cooler than yesterday around the region with
rain/snow showers in western NM and dry conditions elsewhere. A few
inches of snow may accumulate in the mountains, but impacts from
snow will be minor at most. Widespread precipitation is expected
Friday through Saturday night, with the highest storm total amounts
in the eastern plains where rain will transition over to snow
Saturday. The heaviest snow accumulations will focus over the
northern mountains and adjacent highlands. Drier weather returns
Sunday as temperatures rapidly warm-up.
