The National Weather Service has forecast the first possibility of snow in the Jamestown, New Mexico area. It is only a 20% chance (along with rain), but it is significant enough to mention.

They posted:

Sunday

A 40 percent chance of rain. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 54. South wind 5 to 15 mph becoming northwest in the afternoon.

Sunday Night

A slight chance of rain before 9pm, then a slight chance of rain and snow between 9pm and midnight, then patchy snow and freezing drizzle after midnight. Partly cloudy, with a low around 24. North wind 10 to 15 mph becoming light and variable. Chance of precipitation is 20%.

It will be interesting to see if we do get our first snow of autumn. It has been dry for the past several weeks, so we could use the moisture. It's a good thing I changed my propane heater's filters today, I just may need it.
