Two More Storms Expected To Hit New Mexico

Two more storms will be hitting New Mexico in the coming days and the second one of the two may bring a lot of snow. A lot more snow.

The Santa Fe New Mexican reported:
Weather experts continue to say New Mexico is going to get hit with a one-two punch of winter storms that will likely turn Black Friday into White Friday — and might bring a lot of freezing rain, bone-chilling winds and high-running waterways. 
At a time when most people harbor goals of traveling to unite with loved ones to celebrate Thanksgiving, meteorologists with the National Weather Service in Albuquerque said travel over the next few days will get dicey. 
“Things are going to be hazardous, period,” said meteorologist Daniel Porter. 
Storm one is coming in from the Baja California Peninsula and is likely to land in the state between Wednesday afternoon and evening, bringing a potential of snow and freezing rain “along the east-central mountain chain and along the Interstate 40 corridor southward,” Porter said. 
That storm might simply brush by and below Santa Fe. But even a tenth of an inch of freezing rain, as predicted, can create ice that “will wreck havoc on trees and cars,” meteorologist Jennifer Shoemake said. 
California also will deliver the second storm, sending it through Arizona and into New Mexico sometime Thursday. 
“This will be much more of a heavy snow type of event,” Porter said, impacting travel along Interstates 25 and 40, as well as several highways in the east-central and southeastern portions of the state.
Thank goodness I have no plans for any travel during the upcoming days. I am staying close to home and will be spending Thanksgiving with friends in Jamestown.
