After a warming trend that will continue into late week, an Arctic cold front will arrive Saturday along with a round of snow that may bring significant adverse travel impacts to north central and eastern NM. Snow packed and icy roads are possible on Saturday into Saturday night from the Sangre De Cristo Mountains and Central Highlands east to the Texas and Oklahoma borders. The coldest air behind the front will be felt across eastern NM going into Sunday, with frigid wind chill temperatures forecast. A second and stronger Arctic blast will arrive Monday into Monday night, bringing frigid temperatures and dangerous wind chills further west into the state and may prompt the issuance of Cold Weather Advisories. An additional round of snow Monday into Tuesday may be more widespread, but will still favor areas east of the central mountain chain with the potential for more significant adverse travel impacts. Residents of east central and northeast NM should prepare for an extended period of subfreezing temperatures beginning Saturday that will necessitate precautions for people, plants, pipes, and pets. Monitor NOAA weather radio, weather.gov/abq or your local media for the latest updates on this situation. For the latest road conditions, dial 511 or 1.800.432.4269, or visit nmroads.com.
