Dry breezes returning to New Mexico
Sunshine returns with gusty wind and a cool down ahead
BATTLE TULSA TOMORROW AT 5:00 AND N I T SEMIFINAL GAME WITH SOME MUCH NEEDED MOISTURE AROUND THE STATE TODAY. HERE’S BYRON. YEAH WE’RE SEEING THAT SNOW AT TAOS SKI VALLEY THROUGHOUT THE DAY TODAY. AND NOW GUSTY WINDS BLOWING THAT SNOW AROUND ON THE SANGRE DE CRISTO MOUNTAINS. DARK SKIES OVER THE SANDIA MOUNTAINS. WE’RE SEEING SOME RAIN SHOWERS IN THE FOOTHILLS AND SOME LIGHT SNOW AT ELEVATION OVER THE SANDIA MOUNTAINS RIGHT NOW, AND SOME SUNSHINE BREAKING OUT ON THE WEST SIDE OF ALBUQUERQUE. SHOWERS WRAPPING UP THIS EVENING. WE’VE GOT DRY WINDS AND COOLER TEMPERATURES AHEAD, LOOKING GOOD FOR THE PILGRIMS. AND FOR EASTER SUNDAY. YOU SEE WITH KOAT 7 THE RADAR, A FEW OF THOSE SHOWERS POPPING FROM RIO RANCHO TO BERNALILLO, ALGODONES, AND ALSO PLACITAS OUT TOWARD THE SANDIA MANZANO MOUNTAINS RIGHT NOW UP TOWARD THE SANTA FE AREA. WE’VE SEEN SOME SHOWERS, EVEN SOME LIGHTNING STRIKES. FEAR THUNDER STAY INSIDE, AWAY FROM WINDOWS. THOSE SHOWERS BEGINNING TO PULL AWAY FROM THE SUN, BUT MORE ARE WORKING THROUGH THE TUSAS AROUND CHAMA AND ALSO THE AREA AROUND DURANGO SOUTHERN MOUNTAIN. SEEING SOME SHOWERS OVER THE SACRAMENTO MOUNTAINS, RIO RUIDOSO IN CLOUDCROFT AND EAST OF ALAMOGORDO, ALSO TO THE EAST OF ROSWELL AND CARLSBAD. SOME OF THOSE SHOWERS. THIS SYSTEM IS WRAPPING UP AND PULLING AWAY FROM NEW MEXICO. WE HAVE SOME GUSTY WINDS OUT THERE. WIND ADVISORIES FROM LAS VEGAS AND RATON INTO SOUTHEAST NEW MEXICO INTO THIS EVENING. ALSO, NORTHEAST ARIZONA WITH GUSTS COULD BE 55 TO 65MPH. AND THAT FIRE THREAT IN SOUTHEAST NEW MEXICO UNTIL 9:00. WE HAVE A NEW FIRE WEATHER WARNING FOR RATON INTO ROSWELL FOR TOMORROW WITH MORE GUSTY WINDS AHEAD. RIGHT NOW, THOSE WINDS GUSTING TO 45 IN LAS VEGAS. AND THE SAME FOR TAOS, USHERING IN SOME COOLER TEMPERATURES AS THIS STORM SYSTEM PULLS AWAY, DRIER AIR IS RAPIDLY WORKING IN BEHIND IT. SO GOT ANOTHER GAME OUT AT THE LAB AND OF COURSE THEY LOST LAST NIGHT. SO WE’RE HOPING THAT THEY WIN TONIGHT. THE TOPES TAKING ON THE RENO ACES AND WE’RE LOOKING AT THOSE TEMPERATURES WILL GO FROM THE 60S INTO THE 50S WITH BREEZES. YOU’LL DEFINITELY WANT A JACKET OR A HOODIE. TEMPERATURES WILL DROP QUICKLY AS WE HEAD THROUGH THE EVENING. THAT SYSTEM PULLS AWAY. WE HAVE DRY SKIES OVERNIGHT INTO TOMORROW MORNING. A CHILLY START ON YOUR THURSDAY MORNING. WE’LL GIVE TO LOTS OF SUNSHINE AND BREEZY TO WINDY CONDITIONS AHEAD OF OUR NEXT FRONTAL SYSTEM THAT WILL BE SWEEPING IN, AND THOSE WINDS GUSTING TO 30 TO 40MPH ACROSS NORTHEAST NEW MEXICO. AND I THINK AS WE GO INTO FRIDAY, WE’LL SEE SOME STRONGER WIND GUSTS RIGHT HERE IN CENTRAL AREAS AND ALSO FROM THE CENTRAL MOUNTAIN CHAIN OUT INTO THE EASTERN PART OF THE STATE. TEMPERATURES ON FRIDAY WILL BE A LITTLE BIT COOLER WITH THOSE GUSTY WINDS ACROSS NORTHERN AREAS AS WELL. SANTIAGO DE CHIMAYO PILGRIMAGE FOR TOMORROW. TEMPERATURES START OFF IN THE MIDDLE 40S. WE WARM TO ABOUT 70 DEGREES. LOTS OF SUNSHINE TOMORROW, BUT IT WILL BE BREEZY TO WINDY AT TIMES. AND OF COURSE, FOR THE FOLKS THAT ARE MAKING THAT PILGRIMAGE TO TOMMY HILL, THOSE TEMPERATURES START OFF IN THE UPPER 40S AT 9:00 IN THE MORNING, 60S BY LUNCHTIME, AND IT WILL BE BREEZY TO WINDY WITH THOSE TEMPERATURES IN THE UPPER 70S FOR THE AFTERNOON FARM TO THE FOUR CORNERS. DURANGO, CHILE. GALLUP GRANTS LOOKING AT LOTS OF SUNSHINE FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS, WITH OCCASIONAL BREEZY TO WINDY WEATHER. THOSE TEMPERATURES IN THE MORNING WILL GET QUITE COLD SATURDAY MORNING DOWN TO 26 DEGREES, BUT LOOKING GOOD FOR EASTER SUNDAY. SOUTHWEST NEW MEXICO. YOU GET SOME CHILLY MORNINGS, BREEZES AT TIMES, MILD AFTERNOONS THROUGH FRIDAY. TEMPERATURES COME DOWN FOR THE WEEKEND. THERE’S A SLIGHT CHANCE OF A SHOWER AS WE GET INTO EASTER SUNDAY AND SOUTHWEST NEW MEXICO. I THINK SOUTHEAST NEW MEXICO, BREEZY TO WINDY WEATHER OUT THERE. THE HEIGHTENED FIRE THREAT AS WELL, ESPECIALLY FOR TOMORROW. AND THEN WE HAVE COOLER TEMPERATURES FOR YOUR WEEKEND WITH SOME CLOUDS AROUND IN THE NORTHEAST RATON, LAS VEGAS, MORIARTY INTO SANTA ROSA, THAT HEIGHTENED FIRE THREAT FOR TOMORROW AS WELL. AND SOME WIND GUSTS CLOSE TO 50MPH. SO WE’LL CALL IT AN IMPACT WEATHER DAY FOR THE WIND TOMORROW AND THEN CHILLIER TEMPERATURES BY SATURDAY MORNING DOWN TO 26 DEGREES. NICE FOR EASTER 28 IN TAOS TOMORROW MORNING UP TO 64. LOOKING AT 73 IN ESPANOLA, SANTA FE, YOU’RE UP TO 67 DEGREES. AND THAT LOW DOWN TO FREEZING BY SATURDAY MORNING, BUT NICE FOR EASTER SUNDAY. METRO TEMPERATURES WILL START OFF CHILLY IN THE 30S AND 40S WILL TOP OUT IN THE 70S, BUT IT WILL BE BREEZY TO WINDY AT TIMES. GUSTY WINDS FOR FRIDAY.
