Calm Weather & Warm Temperatures continue, but changes are on the way!
Most of the state will enjoy warm temperatures today and tomorrow (President’s Day). There is a chance we could see rain moving through the southwest corner of the state near areas like Silver City on Monday.
HEY EVERYONE, THE TIME NOW 614. JUST TAKING A LOOK ACROSS THE STATE. THIS LOOKS PRETTY TO ME. YOU KNOW, YOU HAVE A BEAUTIFUL SUNRISE, RIGHT? RIGHT DOWN THERE ON THE SANTA FE PLAZA. NOW, WE DO HAVE THOSE TEMPERATURES FREEZING DOWN THERE IN SANTA FE. 30 DEGREES. DEFINITELY GOING TO NEED THE JACKET IF YOU’RE HEADED OUT AND ABOUT.

However, a significant change is on the way. Our big wind event of the year will happen this Tuesday and last through Wednesday. Wind gusts in areas like Ruidoso could exceed 70 mph. However, much of the state will see winds gusts above 40-50 mph. Make sure you secure any outdoor items. Also, our fire threat will be going up because we’ve been dry and we will have strong winds through Wednesday. The fire threat is expected to be high until Wednesday according to the National Weather Service.
